K:/Schnee-markt>

Proof at last that this Christmas market does exist. Hurry on down, because these guys can pack up and be gone before you know it. The rang of Sheep's fleece is excellent if you're looking to replace your old one. Crepes, wine and cheese stalls for the rest of you. Location: Kreuzberg (Skalitzer Str. / Emmaus Kirche).

1st Urban Art Awards - Berlin

http://www.stattbad.net/events/2010-11/artaq-1st-urban-art-award-festival

And my winner:

K:/"Save The River Spree!">

"And it's riverbank property prices". Or so they say...

K:/Spaceman>

Some wayward spaceman floated past this building and spray-painted a picture of himself. How else did it get there?

K:/Boxhagener Platz Market>

The 'Boxi' market seems to alternate between a food and baked goods market and a flea market. The food one is impressive, the flea one not so much. Man-hugs behind the stalls do not alternate.

K:/Hot Dog and Soup>

Located in Friedrichshain (other side of the river to Kreuzberg), this place, as its name suggests, serves hot dogs and home-made soups, and not much else! Perfect place to eat and then hit up the Boxi market :)

K:/Oberbaumbrücke>

The  Oberbaumbrücke joins Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain over the river spree. It used to be one of the borders between East and West Germany. The End of the U-Bahn (metro) line used to be Schlesisches Tor, so as not to cross into East Germany. Now that the Red army has gone, the only danger in crossing this bridge comes from an angry beggar who spits at/on you when you don't cough up your spare change. Charming.
