Viktoria Park/neighborhood/ Kiez

We live in a large (80 Sq. Meters) sunny apt. in the coolest neighborhood in Berlin. (Bergmann Strasse area in Kreuzberg) We are on the top floor of an old building, our apt. was built 10 years ago as an add-on. All the neighbors are really nice and my best friend Adriano lives in the building. (If there are any problems you can talk to him first!) There is also a Yamaha electric piano here. (I'm a musician)

This is a really good part of Berlin. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in Berlin. There's big park down the street (Viktoria Park) and lots of shops, cafés and restaurants in the area. We have Indian, Thai, Lebanese, Turkish, Chinese, Iranian, Italian and of course German restaurants near us. There is the oldest Markthalle (indoor market) in Berlin 200 meters from our house. In the Markthalle are little stands with every conceivable item you'd want. Fruit, vegetables, bakeries etc. are all available there. Next to it is a little park (Marheiniekeplatz) and the post office. we are geographically in the center of the city. There are 2 subway stations (Geneisenaustrasse and Platz der Luftbrücke) 3 minutes walking distance away.
