Last week was rather hectic but I made time to go out and get more details of 'SHOULD DO' for would be tourists . So here goes with my report .
Take the bus number 218 from Theodor Heuss Platz and go to Wannsee. As a rule these are historical buses and very comfy too . The journey takes you through the Grünewald ( a huge forest ) along the shore of the Havel all the way to Wannsee.
You can get on and off using the same ticket and one stop I do recommend is the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Tower . By the way ,Kaiser Wilhelm's 1st's life makes interesting reading . The tower is huge and one can go to the top , via many, many steps ! Well worth it, as the view is spectacular. With forest and water as far as the eye can see it's hard to believe you're in a city .Typical of here there is a restaurant nearby .So after the climbing you can refuel.
For the top fit,you can walk or cycle. Also one can swim in the Havel or go windsurfing .For me though it's car or bus .
Further on is Wannsee where there are terrific boat trips and Strandbad Wannsee with it's famous beach, boasting FKK facilities for those who wish to take off their clothes and live .....
Somehow I think Kaiser Wilhelm Friedrich would approve . All in all, a great place to spend a day in this unusual city.
