Berlin was by far the worst capital I’ve visited

People here often meme about London and Paris being terrible and overrated, but those cities have still beautiful buildings, vibrant culture and nice food scene etc. Rome was also a terrific city. But Berlin simply composed of ugly architecture, rude people, sub-par food, dormant cultural scene and horrible weather etc. There is no single positive thing about the city except I could see the Wall. Are there any more worse capitals than Berlin in Europe?

Berlin has no history or culture. Vienna is the true German capital.

what? if you could say one thing about berlin is that it has a lot of history lmao

The biggest minaret in the world. Allahu akbar.

Germans live to destroy anything that is beautiful or enjoyable

I don't regard the Prussian meme as "history"

the true german capital is frankfurt or aachen or coeln, vienna is after it

come visit Moscow, it is beautiful

That's because they used to be good. Berlin was always dogshit

You didn't get into the techno clubs desu? That's the only reason I go to berlin tbqh.

Also a pain in the arse to get into.

Berlin is a great city. Stop shitting on it.

Ach Berlin.

Berlin is not attractive but at least safer than Paris or London

Museum Island is great and the people are cool. Taxi drivers are German and not shitskins.
Berlin > London >>> Paris.

You have to know that Berlin is a poor city which is an anomaly for a capital city which usually is relatively wealthy if not the wealthiest city of a country. I don't mean poor because it has poor areas because of wealth inequality but the whole city is fucking broker and the average Berliner is even poorer than the German average which means that if you removed Berlin from Germany tomorrow, including its poor excuse of an economy, the German GDP per capita would actually increase; it is a net drain to the German economy. Contrast that with removing Paris or London which would drastically reduce economical capacity in their respective countries.

why?

Get paid higher wages along with 1/8th the COL of London in Berlin. People still need to complain.

This nigga knows.

try getting a european visa with russian passport, you crybaby

Well, of course Berlin is a shithole, pretty much every capital is one. But compared to others...
Way, way cheaper than Paris and London, way less niggered, way less anoying people (especially compared to Paris), better weather and food than London, pretty good nightlife...
Don't get me wrong, I would not want to live there myself, but if I had to choose between these 3 cities... well, at least it would not be easy.

Berlin is NOT a shithole and it does have culture.

Berlin has a big underground ans alternative scene. That's about it.

It is pretty much the same as the other way around, mate. And if you go to cunts like Czechia it is a lot easiert and you can still travel all of Europe.

I'd pick Berlin over NYC every single day of the week. I can afford to go out at night Friday and Saturday with a berlin salary for my profession. In NYC, nightlife is a thing max once a week and I still have to be somewhat conservative with the drinks. Fucking sucks man.

Are there any white people left in the city?

Seriously? Is there nowhere in NYC where the drinks don't cost an arm and a leg? I mean it has the population of Switzerland.

the office I work in is 95% white, on the streets it's maybe 15%

t. also living in Frankfurt

Everything I hear about NYC makes it seem so strange and so unlike every other American city.

I'm sorry to hear that, jaysus. Mostly arabs I would presume.

It's one of those places in America old enough to have culture

The hipster places try to moderate the costs, but even then it's $12+ a drink with tickets to a decent music venue being $60 a night(unless you dig a bit). You can easily go through $100+ as a typical "NYC" hipster who lives in Bushwick(where I currently live). It's fucking shit when I visited Berlin and realized I paid a total of 25 euros for the same amount(ticket+drinks).

Strange in what sense?

Culture here varies from each neighborhood. It's diverse, but the one commonality among everyone is being constantly poor as fuck with minimal investments.

It's so dense, most people use public transportation, everything is an apartment or high rise, trash on the street instead of a can or dumpster etc.

Why not just go into a pub with friends and get pissed? I mean if I go hard at it, I spend like $32,5 or even $43 in one go but that's basically 20 shots of cheap liquor and some dinner thrown in. People who drink beer can get pissed for just about eleven bucks.

You get used to the population density within a few days. Public transport is very very good in the city(walking to a train takes no longer than 5 min. and there are trains within 1-5 min.). If you ever visit London, Tokyo, Paris, or any other major cosmopolitan city then you shouldn't be fazed that its all apartments. The NYC trash/homeless issue will never go away because the city government is incompetent which is a larger issue just with how U.S. cities pretty much neglect the environment.

I want to visit those cities that burgers carpet-bombed, and tell German locals the US is the evilest cunt and Hitler did nothing wrong and it was a true honor to ally with him, but I can't speak a lick of German.

Cringeru

I've been doing that a bit more before going out to a show. Usually it's either that+club or club+drinks. Thing is, the fucking bars are packed to the brim around my neighborhood just because every hipster has done the research onto how to conserve their money. I make enough currently to afford club drinks, but my experience in Berlin got me pissed at how cheap they can go and enjoy nightlife.

I actually want to see this because it might be entertaining.

Why does your country not enjoy sex desu? Most posters I interact with from Jap. are unironically cringe incels.

Berlin is based, as long as you're not the type that visits places by going around with a tour group, shopping for expensive clothes and constantly taking photos like a mindless retard
So I get why an Asian wouldn't like it

>enjoy nightlife
Honestly, I don't know what people see in clubs. It's packed full of people, you can't hear shit, the drinks are expensive. Yeah, girls love them but that's honestly the only reason why I would possibly go there.

please continue visiting berlin and under no circumstance visit any other german cities most especially hamburg

I hesitate to use the word club cause they ones I frequent have a small bar but a couple rooms just for music. Pretty underground scene, and the type of girls over there aren't wearing all black/shitton makeup desu.

I want to visit East Germany

Berlin has nice museums and one of the best party scene in Europe. There's also some decent food. Other than that yeah you're right it can be kind of depressing and it's the worst capital probably

Where can I get the cheapest drinks in Germany?
I drink liquor not not beer btw

If you're ever in the Netherlands skip Amsterdam entirely, go to The Hague instead.

You have to be retarded to get into troubles in Paris and London. Even when I was 15 years old I used to go there and wonder around at night alone.

It was bombed to shit, what do you expect?

True. Berlin is a haphazardly stitched together, mismanaged shithole, and the only capital in Europe that's poorer than its national average. On average Germany would be richer if we nuked our capital.

The grocery store.

Why is it poorer than the national average?

>trash on the street instead of a can or dumpster etc
That seems like an outsider meme to me though. I've been there and it didn't seem particularly dirty to me. Also apparently they largely have their homeless population under control, like 96% of them are living in shelters, compared to 25% of homeless in LA. LA and SF are seemingly quickly becoming more run down shitholes than NYC.

Every time I take the underground, I wish I'd would be bombed again.

Very dirty. Drunks and drug users and blacks and Muslims. Very grey and sad and drab colors, like a dead place. I don’t like it either.

As you may know it was separated by fences and later a wall for almost 45 years. The western half quickly became a welfare case supported by the rest of West Germany to demonstrate that they wouldn't budge, the eastern half was similarly mismanaged as the rest of East Germany by the socialist puppet government. After the reunification both halves were equally ill-equipped to handle economic growth on the free market. The west of Germany already had its self-sustaining, wealthy economic centers like Hamburg and Frankfurt, and now Berlin was surrounded by eastern Germany that had no economic centers to speak of, and in itself is also significantly below the German average in wealth even today. The federal government eventually moved back to Berlin to spur economic growth, and its slowly gained traction, used to be far worse, but it just still hasn't arrived at the national average. Partially also due to the very lassez faire management. Berlin isn't a place of very strict deadlines or strict law enforcement or shame for that matter.
"Ah, airport not finished on time? Oh well, we'll open it next year then."
"Drug dealers in public parks? Well, as long as they're not stabbing anyone."
"We can't afford this thing? It's alright, we'll get some more federal support to pay for it."

Because it’s filled with “artists”, immigrants, junkies and government employees, it’s basically a huge sinkhole for taxes

Oh I totally overlooked the effects the Wall had on Berlin. This makes sense.

>There is no single positive thing about the city except I could see the Wall.
Good party scene. You can buy alcohol at any hour and drink wherever you want. Public transport is good
>sub-par food
This is true, their kebab is overrated
>rude people
I found everybody to be friendly except for one screaming drunk guy on the s-bahn who was unironically a Pole lmao
>horrible weather
nigga it's central Europe, not the med, carib, or SEA...overcast and cool is maximum comfy

Berlin really isnt that bad. It may have some aspects, well some places that are not nice but that has every capital. Besides Berlin is way cleaner than as example London.

Berlin is the city that village kids move to when they want to feel hip and special. It has nothing to offer, only hipsters and politicians. Next time go to Cologne, Munich or one of those small Bavarian towns that are older than dirt.

>better food than London

why are US city govs so incompetent

>I want to visit those cities that burgers carpet-bombed
most of those are in Japan

it's the Brits who bombed the shit out of Germany

>drink wherever you want
that sounds nice in theory but more like it would pan out with the city being full of homeless drunks accosting people

Berlin felt a lot more liveable than London or Paris to me. I could find secluded places easily and see children walking about with their parents out of eyeshot.
Would never see any of that in the other places.

Glass ceiling salary and no incentive to "drive profits" leads to 20 hours a week on FB/Twitter with other 20 hours dedicated to looking busy.

hey

Its alright, nothing special
