Berlin has some incredible places to visit. One of the most outstanding monuments I was lucky enough to witness was the Brandenburg Gate. A gem and emblem of this gay city that is fabulous to see during the day and night. For the gay travellers who have a passion and appreciation for art, the East Side Gallery, a historical landmark, is the perfect street where you can explore the talents of many artists. You could even walk around Museum Island at any part of the day. There you would have a wonderful view of boats decorating the Spree River.

If you’re looking to enjoy a trip to Mother Nature’s lovely talents, consider visiting the Tiergarten, a massive park where tourists love to have picnics, play sports, or enjoy the weather. It is a popular location for gay men. The Zoo Berlin is close by as well. Some tourists would buy drinks from shops such as Lidl and Edeka and enjoy them here. It’s much cheaper to buy and enjoy alcohol this way.

If you’re the type of gay man who wants to shop till they drop, the Alexanderplatz is Berlin’s central area filled with shopping malls. It is one of the city’s busiest places, so keep in mind that there will be a big crowd. When it’s time to head to the luxurious side of the shopping trip, Kurfürstendamm has tons of areas with luxury brands.

When it comes to safety, you wouldn’t find a more comfortable place to hold your partner’s hand than in Berlin. It’s the perfect escape from judging eyes. This gay city is filled with gay men of all ages who are coming from all over the world.

Keep in mind that most places, including the gay bars, street markets, and shops, don’t always accept card payments. So, make sure you have extra cash with you at all times. During my visit, I noticed that the only gay bar that accepted a card payment was the New Action Gay Bar.

What’s interesting about Berlin is the public transportation. The network of buses is very sophisticated so you can get anywhere in the city very easily. It even has some night buses that run regularly from some of the most popular gay areas. You would need to buy tickets before you get on the bus. There are no cash or card payments made on the bus. To get a ticket, there are machines outside/inside the stations. Keep your eye out for them.

Berlin is, truly, a lovely city popular for gay men with tons of adventures, action, and good times.
Before we book a holiday or a flight, check if we need a holiday visa or a transit visa (if we're not sure), just to have as little as possible unpleasant situation. The best you can check is on your embassy ( the origin of your passport), but other sites will also give you some ideas of how strong your passport is for free visa traveling; please check here.

I’d love to hear how you felt when you visit!

Enjoy your time!
