Are there any cobblestone streets left in Berlin?

    Many of the side streets in old East Berlin are cobblestone. Especially in the Friedrichshain district. Even when the main thoroughfares are asphalt it is not uncommon at all for at least a portion of the sidewalks to be cobblestone, especially around historic sites, of which there are many. If you visit the Nikolaiviertel nearAlexanderPlatz, even the streets are all cobblestone.

    Basically, in all of Germany. Not on the main streets, but in some side streets and the outskirts of Berlin, and in all smaller towns in Germany. They do asphalt streets when car traffic increases, but Europe (and Germany in special) has some monument conservation laws that include cobblestone streets near historical sites. Some cobblestone streets even get restored with new stones and governmental funding. They are usually not allowed for car traffic, so to see them, you'd have to walk or rent a bike.

    Berlin is just a vivant, passionately and addictive town, a city that is only perfect for invest the vacation. Find out more with hotelbye . In Berlin you'll only appreciate its iconic views, its substantial swathes of natural, its sky bars and fashionable restaurants. Berlin is just a major hub of politics, lifestyle, press, and science. Noted for the national flair, Berlin is home to the entire world famous Berlin Opera and Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, while their diverse artwork scene encompasses a huge selection of galleries, functions, and museums, including these centred on Museum Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. But, nothing claims Berlin like the Brandenburg Gate, long the city's many defining monument and its answer to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Brandenburg Gate was created for King Frederick Wilhelm II in 1791 and today durante times continue to be an essential image with several famous readers like: Statement Clinton and Barack Obama.

    There are a few! I'm not exactly sure where though... Make sure to keep an eye out for Stölpersteine (Stumbling Stones) which are bricks put into the sidewalks and cobblestone to remember some of the victims of the Holocaust. Read more about them here...
