Going to Europe, things to do in London, Berlin and Vienna?
44 replies, posted
In the middle of the year I'm going to see my sister in Berlin and go to London, and possibly also go see Vienna. My question to you, Facepunch, is this: What are the best things to do in London, Berlin and Vienna? I only have a few weeks, consisting of a week in London, and then one or two weeks in Berlin, and possibly a week in Vienna (3 or 4 weeks all up, depending on how much I want to spend).
Me.
Mister Sandman.
Overthrow the governments and install a true, Islamic theocracy because democracy brings oppression.
London: Go to a pub and drink.
Berlin: Go to a pub and drink.
Vienna: Go to a pub and drink.

You get a pat on the head for effort, too bad I'm Australian.
They are 3 Big capitals, I'm sure you'll find stuff to do.
London - any of the many historical and interesting things in london (Tower Of London, Buckingham Palace, The Thames, Old shit, Westminster Abby, look at a map, Big Ben, Parliament, British Museum, Imperial War Museum.)
Berlin - That wall that was important, old churches (the blown out one too), Checkpoint Charlie, differences between East and West, The Reichstag, bullet holes all over the place, Germans
Vienna - Go check out Mozart's stuffs here, Be in Austria, talk to Austrians, I'll think of something later

That video irritates the hell out of me because I travel and am American, but I'm smart enough not to be a dick to everyone.
Sleep and Eat.
I read this as going to Europa.
Needless to say, I was pondering what there actually was to do on Europa.
Go to Prague if you can
Fuck it, go to London.
Don't go to a pub and drink, shit can go wrong if you will get drunk.
Best thing to do in London is leave.
Berlin has some nice nightclubs. Electro capital of the world!
Also come down here to Amsterdam!
Visit cold-war era bunkers underneath Berlin. If they're still opened to the public...
Museum in london, and Tower of London, see something at west end!
I second the Nuclear bunkers in Berlin. I think you can get into one through the History of Berlin museum. They really give you a feel of how desperate and scary things must have been. There was about 5 toilets to 500-1000 people, and these people would have had radiation sickness. Not a nice thought.

Goto Westfield. I live about 5 minutes away from it.
The only thing I know of Vienna and probably isn't associated with it at all.

Go to Berlin first. Start a political party and rally support by blaming the economic shortcomings of the country on an ethnic minority. Once you've gained power and have amassed a sizable military force, move farther west and begin your trip to beautiful London. Bomb everything. You might want to stop in Vienna before that and build some air defenses.
Enjoy your stay in Europe!
Remember, always make fun out of Guido Westerwelle.
In Germany that is.

Also, Brandenburger Tor.And See the little bit of the Berlin wall.
There are many many things in Berlin, so it'll be better to spend those 10 bucks for a Tourist's book.
Things to do in London? Get stabbed.
Why do people think this thread is "Berlin,London or Vienna?"
Read the OP.
Invade Poland
Not much to do In london apart from getting pissed
I once saw the changing of the guards in London and it was pretty cool to see it. I don't know anything about it and I don't know whether it's only on some days so you'll have to find it out yourself.
Berlin's got quite a nice nightlife. One bar i've always wanted to go to is the "Klub der Republik" - it's full of DDR furniture and memorabilia so if you're up for that...
You could also visit the Regierungsviertel and laugh at pathetic politicians and walk around in that glass dome on top of the Reichstag.
Also, shopping.
