Host to the 2006 World Cup Final, and one of the greenest cities in Europe, Berlin will surprise and delight those who have not visited before. With a vibrant nightlife that rivals any in Europe and a thriving alternative arts and music scene, Berlin is a bubbling hotpot for culture and creativity. It has top flight museums, galleries and concert halls and a brand new sporting arena in the spectacular ' Allianz Arena' nicknamed the "Schlauchboot" or inflatable boat. Whether its for the history and culture or the alternative and modern, Berlin has to be seen. For the more traditional try the Museum Island with the Pergamonmuseum, the Altes Museum and the Alte Nationalgalerie all in the one location. For the contemporary seek out the Neue Nationalgalerie or the more obvious Deutsche Guggenheim. The Berlin nighlife offers everything from grungy cellar dives to ultra chic discos, the Sage-club and Berghain being amongst the best known.
