Ever since the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, nightlife and clubbing have become entrenched in the culture of the German capital, and the city has earned a partying reputation that it's proud of.As the New York Times described, "One aspect of reunification that no one would have predicted - the emergence of techno and a tenacious, do-it-yourself club scene - has turned out to be not a passing night-life fad, but a cornerstone of the city's identity."
DJs blast techno and house music to crowds who are solely there to dance. But it's not just a techno city - Berlin offers plenty of spots for rooftop drinks, swing dancing, craft beers, late-night eats, and classic rock 'n' roll.
