While this can be true, the reality is that Berlin is also a city filled with families shopping for back-to-school supplies, co-workers enjoying an after-dinner drink in a jungle-like courtyard and countless parks, gardens and canals filled with people enjoying nature. In our retail trendspotting we found that nature extends into every nook and cranny of a Berlin’s lifestyle too!
