Berlin is a garbage bin: dirty, noisy, and unfriendly in tone and behaviour, very incompetent in administration structures, and political government. I know Berlin since the early 80s, I lived there for ten years. It was okay in the 80s, but since the wall came down, it socially and culturally constantly declined in free fall. German middle class moved out, low class foreigners moved in, tax income fell, tax evasion into the surrounding areas of Berlin, plus a huge financial scandal that left the city'S finances in smoking ruins. It also is a deeply anti-social city, for my taste, and it lives on the financial drip of other federal states.

Which all together does not make Berlin a bit more silent. Instead it has thge biggest mouth of all federal states, and has perfectly made itself a nest in being nursed by others, and wasting more money on very questionable things than it can afford.

Since a few years, Berlin has become a black spot on my map. With my last friends in Berlin having fleed the city last year, and my parents having moved out many years ago, I have no more reason to ever see that pit again. When I think of berlin, I think of the Berlin of the past, and that was fine. The present Berlin - is simply ugly, dirty, foreign, and bad. And it will not become better. I will never understand why tourists consider it to be a tourist must-see.
