The creative potential capacity of the city has moved UNESCO to accept Berlin as the first German city in the global network of the creative cities Creative Cities Network.

The Hackeschen Höfe and the bordering streets are locations where fashion and design are a bit shriller and more offbeat than elsewhere in Berlin. Galleries, bars and cafes make this area an incrowd meeting place. Nobody should miss a Berlin night under the art 2nouveau building facades or in the Variete Chamaelion.

Dresden - Lifestyle & Entertainment
Nachtskaten (nightskating) - From mid-April to the end of October Dresden’s inner city is transformed every Friday evening into an Eldorado for inline skaters. It starts at 9 PM at the Halfpipe on the Lingnerplatz. The routes are set anew every week and the streets closed off for the tour.

In the Äussere Neustadt (outer new city) Dresden’s nightlife is in full swing, without closing time. Not only were the facades of the old buildings restored, but a collection of new pubs, restaurants, bars and clubs arose - ranging from novel to offbeat, from Indian to gay, from jazz to blues.

 

On May 1st, flying colorful flags, the eight historic paddle steamers of „Sächsische Dampfschiffahrt“  begin their journey at the „Terrassenufer“ (terraced banks) in Dresden and sail in parade formation up the Elbe, with a Dixieland band on board. But this is not the only day when you can sail on the steamers of the oldest and largest paddle-steamer fleet. It’s worth going on an excursion on the Elbe and enjoying the marvellous landscape from the vantage point of the river at any time of year.
