4. Kreuzberg 61

Kreuzberg has one of the youngest populations in Berlin, drawn to the cheap rents and abundant night-life. Although it may not be that way for long – gentrification is slowing creeping through the suburb, much to the dismay of the city's active left-wing community, who are gradually being moved out of the squatted buildings they've made their homes for years. Typical of Kreuzberg, the Bergmannstrasse, or Bergmannkiez ("neighbourhood") as it's known to locals, provides an interesting mix of shops and scenes. It's here that you'll find Turkish second-hand dealers alongside gay cafes, live-music venues and vintage clothing stores. U-BAHN: Mehringdamm   (© 10Best)
