A little more about where I live
Treptow is a district in Berlin, Germany, known for its large park, Treptower Park, and its location on the Spree River. It was previously a separate borough but was merged with Köpenick in 2001 to form the current Treptow-Köpenick borough.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Treptow-Köpenick Borough:
Treptow-Köpenick is the largest of Berlin's 12 boroughs by area and is located in the southeast of the city.
Treptow is a relatively narrow district, stretching about 10 kilometers wide and 30 kilometers long.
Key Features:
Treptower Park: This large park along the Spree River offers a variety of activities, including a riverside path, lawns, a rose garden, and a riverboat jetty.
Soviet War Memorial: Located in Treptower Park, it commemorates the Soviet soldiers who fell in the Battle of Berlin.
Spreepark: A former amusement park located in the Plänterwald area of Treptow.
Adlershof: A technology park in Treptow, known for its science and media focus.
Alt-Treptow: The original locality of Treptow, now part of the larger Treptow-Köpenick borough.
The combined borough also includes Köpenick, known for its old town, palace, and numerous lakes and forests, as well as other areas like Johannistal and Baumschulenweg.
I am about twenty five minutes away from the Kreuzberg area in which I work. But in a very short distance from my flat there is a well-equipped gym, which is ideal for me in the morning when I can exercise.
