Is Friedrichshain worth it in a day?

Worth itIn a day

Even on a tight schedule, Friedrichshain earns the hours.

Allow Evening to late night.

Ground zero for Berlin's techno-and-late-nights reputation — RAW-Gelände, Boxhagener Platz cafés, and a wall-to-wall bar scene that runs till dawn. The catch: it can look rough and tagged-over by day, gets rowdy and party-trashed at weekends, and isn't where you'd bring grandparents or young kids.
