On a leafy street in Kreuzberg is Kuratiert, a contemporary illustration gallery and shop selling prints, ceramics, textiles and more by some of the best creators from Berlin and the world. It also hosts regular dedicated exhibitions, and is a great place to browse for gifts, or just inspiration.

Historical district with buildings designed by Alvar Aalto, Walter Gropius, Oscar Niemeyer and many more.

Besides being the friendliest shoemaker in town, he also offers quality for good value. 

Lovely relaxing atmosphere in a beautiful courtyard. Great variety of Breads, and Delicious pastries.

Beautiful atellier-stores around weserstrasse, this is from a very nice girl that make "sculpure hats" as she said. Excellent record store across the street also.
