Bahnhof Zoo & Zoologisher Garten (U2)

The station that inspired U2's Zoo TV tour is a heady mix of the seedy, the touristy and capitalism at its ugliest. Just up the road from the fancy and expensive Ku'Damm shopping precinct is the Zoo gardens where the furs are still on the animals. The enclosures are fenceless with waterfilled moats between you and the inhabitant and some, like the flamingos , have no enclosure at all. The attached Aquarium has an interesting collection of psychedelic jelly fish tanks as well as the usual assortment of teeth and fins. Zoo open daily 9am-6.30pm (May-Sept), 9am-5pm Oct-Feb, 9am-5.30pm Mar-Apr, admission €9, students €7, combo zoo-aqu €14 and €11.
