Tempelhofer Feld

★ 4.6 (29,582)Free

Tempelhofer Feld occupies the vast former Tempelhof Airport, its historic runways and taxiways left largely intact and repurposed as a public park where Berliners bike, skate, kite-surf on land, and picnic across an area far larger than most city parks. The sheer scale surprises first-time visitors, and its flat, paved-and-grass mix makes it equally suited to a leisurely walk or a serious ride. A 4.6 rating from nearly 30,000 reviews and a near-perfect must-see score confirm it as one of Berlin's defining modern landmarks.

What people say

"I was sad I was not able to spend more time at this awesome park in Berlin. As I rode my bike around, I was in awe of the magnitude of this park. It was enormous and there was barely any people. It began to rain really hard and I had to leave as there wasn’t anywhere for me to hide and get out of the rain."
