Lonely Planet review

Berlin's oldest public park (since 1840) provides treasured relief from urbanity. Besides expansive lawns, it has playgrounds, tennis courts, a free half-pipe for skaters, the adorable Märchenbrunnen (Fairytale Fountain; popular with gay cruisers) and various socialist monuments. Its two hills are actually piles of wartime debris; the taller one is nicknamed Mont Klamott. Summer events include a popular outdoor film series.
