Sprawling Kreuzberg is home to students, artists and a large Turkish population, with many restaurants around Kottbusser Tor. The quirky Bergmannkiez area is known for thrift shops, laid-back cafes and the landscaped Viktoriapark. The gritty area near Görlitzer Park offers street art, casual bars and food stalls at Markthalle Neun. Shaded pathways along the Landwehr Canal attract walkers, cyclists and loungers.
