Fodor's Review:
The quiet greenery of the 630-acre Tiergarten is a beloved oasis, with some 23 km (14 mi) of footpaths, meadows, and two beer gardens. The inner park's 6 1/2 acres of lakes and ponds were landscaped by garden architect Joseph Peter Lenné in the mid-1800s. On the shores of the lake in the southwest part, you can relax at the Café am Neuen See (Lichtensteinallee), a café and beer garden. Off the Spree River and bordering the Kanzleramt (Chancellory) is the Haus der Kulturen der Welt (House of the World Cultures, John-Foster-Dulles Allee 10. 030/397-870. www.hkw.de), referred to as the "pregnant oyster" for its design. Thematic exhibits and festivals take place here, and it's also a boarding point for Spree River cruises.
