Berlin Links

Now that I have tickets to Berlin booked, I'm in the process of researching the city and trying to figure out what's worth seeing.

Here's some links to tourism sites and blogs that are pretty helpful for planning a trip:

Visit Berlin - The official tourist website for the city

BVG.de - Tickets and fares for Berlin public transport. It looks like the weekly ticket is the way to go!

Berlin - David Lebovitz's tips for eating and drinking in the city, including the best places for currywurst

Berlin on a Platter - restaurant recommendations that make it clear that Berlin's a true multicultural city

iHeartBerlin - a guide to events happening in the city, including art, fashion, and entertainment

Mostly Berlin - a personal blog about the city

My mom said you were planning on going to Berlin so I thought I'd post a quick comment or two (not that I feel like I am an expert on the city, even after almost 3 months here).
I was really surprised by the currywurst--it was way better than expected. Curry36 at the Mehringdamm U-Bahn!
The Turkish food at the Imbisse (food kiosks) is great. Doener, falafel, Turkisch pizza...all delicious and so cheap.
The Turkish Market is on Tuesdays and Fridays and is a lot of fun to visit...it's between Schoenleinstrasse and Kottbusser Tor U-Bahn stops. There's also flea markets everywhere...and Christmas markets are already beginning to appear.
