BERLIN

I fancy going to Berlin for a week in the summer, I enjoy going to art galleries and museums but also like going to things that are off the beaten path (not touristy) any suggestions
thanks

The parks,museums and galleries around the Charlottenburg area are lovely and not exactly tourist central http://commons.wikime...in-charlottenburg.jpg
The bus system is very easy to understand and reliable - get a street map with the bus routes on and go for it.
Least good use of time: queueing to go up the TV Tower in Alexanderplatz - spend time instead looking around the Nikolaiviertel which is quite nearby, and one of the only 'old' bits of the city to survive - lots of shops, courtyards and places to eat.

Around Adenauerplatz we found loads of really good eateries, especially Xantener Eck - but its such a great city you can't really go wrong.

Is this of any interest to you?

thanks Mosaic and Buenochico again. I love stencil graffiti so that Alternative City Tour sounds perfect for me. I like doing things that aren't that well known to tourists and love walking! :)
