What you'll see
An old airport turned into a vast open park: two long runways full of cyclists, skaters and kite-surfers, community gardens, barbecue areas and the huge curved terminal building at the edge.
A brief history
During the Soviet blockade of 1948–49, planes landed here every few minutes to fly food and coal into West Berlin. The airport closed in 2008, and Berliners voted to keep the field open.
