Use Valentine’s Day in Berlin for a special romantic experience with the woman or man of your dreams.

Television Tower

According to psychologists, dating supposedly goes better at high points. The reason: the excitement because of the height transfers to the romantic situation. The highest place in Berlin is, of course, the platform of the TV tower and if the view is good, you have a really breathtaking view of the city from here.

However, it’s best to book tickets in advance if you want to avoid long waits, especially if you’re also planning a romantic meal at the Sphere platform restaurant.

• Where: Panoramastraße 1A, D-10178 Berlin, Mitte, S3, S5, S7, U5, U8, U9 Alexanderplatz.
