Weather Berlin , Germany 

Berlin is the capital city of Germany and enjoys a temperate continental climate. Residents and visitors to this part of Western Europe experience all four seasons in the year, with warm summers and cold winters. The area receives moderate rainfall all year round, but overall the weather is great for visiting any month.

Typically, the eastern portions of Germany have colder temperatures throughout the year than the western parts. Berlin is an exception, staying warmer than the surrounding countryside and nearby towns like Lubars and Grunheide. The warming is thanks to its urban setting of buildings and roads that create an insulating effect. During the winter months, snow and frost are possible from December through March. In the summer, the humidity increases as the temperatures rise, but fortunately, neither get high enough to be uncomfortable.

The city has a storied history, with numerous national governments setting up there throughout the years including the Kingdom of Prussia, the Weimar Republic and Nazi Germany. In World War II, much of the city was devastated and destroyed by air raids and bombings. Most of the other buildings that remained were torn down and rebuilt in the years after the war. Some were rebuilt to honour the city and country's history, while others took on more modern architecture.

When you visit, along with history, you'll be treated to culture, nightlife and sports. The city is home to several music, art and dance communities and it has over 44 theatres and stages. Even if you aren't a partier, you have to check out the incredible nightlife of the city, with a plethora of restaurants, bars, clubs and event venues.

The people of Berlin are active and the city hosts a number of major sporting events throughout the year. It hosted the Summer Olympics in 1936, the FIFA World Cup in 2006 and the UEFA Championship Finals in 2015. Other events include the renowned Berlin Marathon, beach volleyball Grand Slam and numerous BMX events.

No matter where you choose to stay in the city, you'll be near the attractions and main sights thanks to an excellent public transportation system of buses, trains and trams. The city has hotels to fit every budget, from five-star brand name properties to budget-friendly smaller hotels. Fortunately, nearly any time of the year is a good one to visit Berlin, as the city has so much to offer visitors every month. Even in the dark days of winter, the city has plenty of indoor activities to keep you occupied and entertained.
