A ride through Berlin with the BVG Bus - M48

The BVG is a good way  to discover Berlin in a relaxing way. On a ride with the bus M48 you will pass places, houses and town halls that played an important part in Berlin's history. From the noble suburb of Zehlendorf, the M48 starts its journey through the city to Alexanderplatz. From Zehlendorf to Kleistpark   The first sight is Zehlendorf’s octagonal village church. It dates from 1768. One of the most popular excursion destinations in its neighbor district Steglitz is the Botanical Garden. It was officially opened in 1910. Previously, the Botanical Garden was located in Schöneberg - we will pass the site later! A relatively small castle - or rather said a manor house, that still exists - gave its name to the busy Schloßstraße (castle street). It was built around 1804 and a part of the building houses a theatre. The Schloßstraße is one of the most important shopping streets in Berlin. It has got three large shopping centers!  Impressive is the Town Hall in Friedena
