in the house plenty of famous tourist sites but if you want something different head to the court spend songwriter talk to can find it a great place to switch off in the heart of a city. that will stand sixty six meters above sea level lends its name to the surrounding district. back the cuts back is a place to relax. it's a beautiful park offering a great feel of the city it's a nice place to meet with friends. dalton and started out as a basket she's lived in lynn's growing tobacco district for many years she knows all the small shops here like the silver disk the record still.

has a thing for me this shop is particularly important for me they sell my albums and where in fact the first shop to do so. doctor cannot produce these videos to go with her songs filmed on the streets of berlin and. then they have to be. right back is extremely popular with artists you find exhibitions in all sorts of places like here and so i perform a church of syntagma spa. kenny gallery shows contemporary art here. targeting the younger generation. we currently have thirty eight artists on our books all of them making contemporary art many of them come from abroad but now live in berlin. these playful wooden sculptures were made by swiss artist cloudy accompt. not far away in the district of show back we find

one of the island's more bizarre exhibitions a lipstick museum run by makeup artist and writer and a colleague here he divulges the make up secrets of film divas and other celebrities many of them left a lipstick kiss instead of an autograph. it was when i got to know hildegard naif that i became a serious collector i did her makeup for over thirty years and advised her on fashion and style. one day she said to me that she'd done an advert for lipstick before i was even born it was for the folks lip unchecked meaning people slipstick or v.l. for short the headline in the popular build tabloid was that men have v.w. so now the women have. to follow. and this is it here they cost one mark fifty back that fish. the district of china back also has a few calorie periodicity is like the sardine and bar here sardines and other fish

a good address for artists and all other creative types because there's still some free space left but many wonder how long it can last. there's a what makes the city special is that it's so relaxed but that's under threat rent prices are rising rapidly and the politicians aren't doing enough to change that but that's what gives the city's quality of life another good place to relax is in the district of our torn shown house and many would no doubt to live in this bungalow it's at least open for public viewing it was the last place a bounce house architect needs found a home designed in germany. and the living quarters open out onto a terrace and the garden. of the do wings of the house basically embrace the garden it's like an active gesture. against. the neighboring district of vice and

it is also not short on natural beauty spots it takes its name from a lake that's popular for bathing it's a world away from city life actually not that far from the city center. however that we wrap up today show but before we go we would like to let you in on this week's draw we'd like to know which city you would like to just cover just go to our website and take part in our survey and by doing so you qualify to win a euro watch and now it is time to say goodbye for me and the rest of us here on max as always thanks for watching live from berlin. paris is one of your. top tourist destination but away from the famous sites and the grand british gods there are some truly champs just waiting to be discovered at
