Living in a central location with direct proximity to water and greenery: this wish is also fulfilled by the northern Berlin district of Friedrichshain. Whoever hears this name probably often thinks of the wild and colorful hustle and bustle in the capital. And rightly so, because the district with its trendy neighborhoods such as Boxhagener, Rudolf or Samariterkiez are particularly popular with students and young people. Here, the familiar atmosphere of Revaler Strasse meets the urbanity of Warschauer Strasse / Frankfurter Allee. The neighboring Simon-Dach-Kiez with its side streets is characterized by a high concentration of bars, clubs, pubs and restaurants that make every after-work and weekend perfect. If you are in the mood for art and culture, you will find the world-famous Eastside Gallery to the west, along Stralauer Allee. Here 118 graffiti artists immortalized themselves on the concrete remains of the former Berlin Wall to celebrate its fall.
Around Corinthstraße, in the Stralauer Kiez, snack bars, shopping stores and various doctors within walking distance provide for general well-being. Almost a stone's throw away, the Rummelsburger Bucht invites you to excursions and adventures by kayak or event boat on the water. Via the Oberbaum Bridge, you can quickly reach the adjacent district of Alt-Treptow with its Treptow Harbor and the 882,000 sqm Treptow Park, a green oasis and recreation area. In addition to a leisurely stroll along the waterfront or the opportunity to explore the area by excursion boat, there is also casual cuisine to enjoy here in the south, including smoked fish from the harbor smokehouse located there.
In Friedrichshain, nowhere is too far. Not only are the Ostkreuz or and Treptower Park S-Bahn stations just a 10-minute walk from Corinthstraße - thanks to the extensive rail network with six S-Bahn lines serving the capital's transport hubs, all parts of the district, the neighboring districts of Kreuzberg, Neukölln, Alt-Treptow and Plänterwald, and the city center can be reached quickly.
