(Berlin, 12 July 2010) "Berlin by the sea if it were so '" trilled the capital Combo Jeans Team 2004 and delivered a brilliant summer song with electronic backing . That these thoughts are not in the subjunctive must be formulated, knew Conny Froboess, who sang "Pack your swimming costume ..." and recommended that West Islanders as the Wannsee Adria replacement. Berlin is not created just for landlubbers, as it has longer and more waterways canal bridges than Venice. Schiffbauerdamm and fishing island, Canals and dockyards are evidence of a "maritime tradition" that is still undiscovered. Wannsee and Müggelsee are in the southwest and east of the city large recreation areas. Beach bars in town invite you to chill out. What should you ever travel to the south?
Berlin is a sea with water. This perspective was the starting point of a book project, in May 2010 under the title ". sea water to conquer the capital city Berlin " has been published (see: www.vergangenheitsverlag.de or in print).
Berlin is a city on the water, anyway, an urban sea. The book shows how to get with and without a boat slip on the water, where you can borrow boats and how to act on water. Admittedly, Berlin is not at sea, but ducts, Spree and Havel offer enough adventure, which can be broken down by paddle boat, water taxi or motor boats. Along the proposed routes on Berlin's waterways Attractions is presented, marked and suggested tips for landing ashore.
is a few exceptions, it is possible in all of Berlin, to drive with all types of boats, almost all waterways. If you do not have a dinghy, then boarded hand, both solar and fuel-powered boats. If you is not enough, you can also rent rafts, canoes or build go out with the air mattress - naturally all at your own risk. Whatever you want to be on the road, in "Sea Berlin" to learn something about the base of your choice on where to get it and where to use their best companions to conquer Berlin waters. The book describes a total of four tours of the maritime Berlin: In the north-west you go by Spandau and Reinickendorf and Charlottenburg, the tour of middle goes past the major landmarks, the tour South East strips Treptow, Kreuzberg and Neukölln and the south is on the Teltow Canal Köpenick to Potsdam.
On every tour of the book tells stories on the edge: from big fish and old residential utopias of Boat builders and fishermen passions. So at the end is a little cultural history of the Berlin waterways told - and some of what has been done on the banks and the ports of Berlin in the last centuries. So the story is told of Amphicars who left in the 1960s in the Spandau factory and are probably the best that was ever built in Berlin in water suitable stands. Although the company went bankrupt shortly afterwards, but it is also evident here, which produced the city and its water for ideas. After all, the Berlin Amphicar is a rarity today and traded high.
shows sea los Berlin also was under water: In the Berlin Waters cavort about 13 fish species, especially groupers, eels, pike, tench and carp. Occasionally there are also gold fish, moderlieschen and bleak, from the shed was manufactured previously silvery faux pearls. Fish have a special meaning for the city: The first Berlin have lived on fishing. While almost every great-Berlin was earlier forced to fish to survive, there are only a few dozen real fishermen in the city. In total there are 16 major acquisitions and 14 part-time farms, which usually operates only one person. These last Ur-Berlin offer freshly caught fish - in municipal waters. What many may seem odd (fish from Berlin), definitely worth the sample's example (the addresses of all commercial fishing is available at Senate Environment). With annual sales of about 0.5 million euros, the Berlin Commercial fishing is insignificant, but after all the lonely fisherman take to the seas of Berlin to preserve, care and a balanced fish population at. eat
