Tiergarten park has 210 hectares (520 acres) in size and is among the largest urban gardens in Germany. Only the Tempelhofer Feld and Munich's Englischer Garten are larger. For Berliners, Tiergarten Park is the city’s green lung – just like New York’s Central Park or London’s Hyde Park. Close to the city center and bordering such major sights as the Brandenburg Gate or Potsdamer Platz, the forested grounds cover a spreading 210 hectares, nearly 519 acres – slightly more than Hyde Park.

Tiergarten Park is very much at the heart of Berlin life – attracting joggers, skaters, cyclists, and walkers, as well as those who just want to relax in the sun. The park’s spreading green lawns are popular for family picnics, ball games or simply unwinding and taking it easy – an ideal place to recharge your batteries on a break from some serious shopping or seeing the sights.

Tiergarten Park not only offers winding tree-lined paths and open green spaces but is also home to many interesting memorials as well as cultural and political sights. Close to the Brandenburg Gate, you can find the Soviet war memorial and the Global Stone peace project. Further on into the park, the arts and exhibition center Haus der Kulturen der Welt is set attractively on the banks of the River Spree. The Office of the Federal President adjacent to Bellevue Palace, the official residence of the President of Germany, is to the west. Here too, you can find the Victory Column (Siegessäule) with its panoramic views of the city. For a waterside location, the Café am Neuen See to the south is set on the shore of a small lake. The café’s beer garden is open almost all year round – and if it’s too cold to enjoy sitting outside, you can warm yourself by the fire indoors. From here, it’s only a short walk to the German Resistance Memorial Centre or the memorials for political activists Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg.
