Schillerkiez is a small area, only 4 blocks by 7, nestled in between busy Hermannstrasse and the expanse of Tempelhofer Feld, in the achingly trendy neighbourhood of Neukölln. In recent years it has become one of the most talked-about places in the city, and regularly tops lists of the most desirable locations in Berlin.

In the very north of Neukölln lies a fascinating, lively, diverse area known as Kreuzkölln. Lying just to the south of the border with Kreuzberg (hence the portmanteau Kreuzkölln), the area is generally synonymous with Reuterkiez, the Neukölln neighbourhood with Reuterplatz in its centre, though the borders are, like all good Kiezes, somewhat fluid and flow into Graefekiez, Donaukiez and Reichenberger Kiez. One thing is for sure, though; Kreuzkölln is emblematic of the change and development going on in many parts of Berlin.

A sleepy village in the heart of Neukölln, Rixdorf is an escape from the hustle and bustle. Come here to enjoy cobblestone streets, laid-back locals, and a charming rural atmosphere in the centre of Berlin.
