Easter markets in Berlin
It’s a great idea for holiday entertainment. Traditional for German capital Easter markets really can surprise. The market at Alexanderplatz is especially good for children – they can pet real rabbits and other small animals while adults enjoy live music, wine and a large handmade Easter eggs collection.
Meanwhile, the market at Breitscheidplatz in Charlottenburg can delight visitors as well: brightly decorated stalls, a variety of Goodies and a huge Easter Bunny, giving out Easter eggs to amuse children.
Fans of the historic festivals are welcomed to the Spandau citadel. On Easter weekend here will be held not only Easter market, but also real knight tournament! In addition, it will be possible to see performances of jugglers, acrobats and fakirs. Children will be able to shoot a bow and listen to traditional tales.
Easter bonfires
Spending the holidays in Berlin, go to see the Easter bonfires. This is really a fascinating spectacle, which is traditionally held in the Parks of the city. Huge bonfires, traditional music, fire-show, and snacks-grill – nobody here will freeze or get bored.
