Tiergarten

The large Tiergarten, which spans 519 acres from downtown Berlin westward, draws tourists seeking a break from the bustle of the city. The park's name, which translates to "Animal Garden," derives from the fact that in the late 17th century, a few affluent Germans used it as a hunting area.

Today, tourists can still see animals by going to the Berlin Zoo, or Zoologischer Garten, which is a part of the park. The most well-liked green area in Berlin can be traversed on foot, by bicycle, or while running. However, a lot of visitors favor the Tiergarten's two biergartens more. The Victory Column, which was built in 1873 to honor Prussia's victory in the Franco-German War, is also housed in the Tiergarten. Great views of Berlin can be seen by those who climb to the top of this monument.

The Tiergarten S-Bahn or Brandenburger Tor U-Bahn stations are the closest to the park. There is no charge for entry, and the park is open every day.
