The shopping scene is dominated by big names in the Berlin retail industry such as Dussmann, Buttenheim, Blush Dessouss and Best Studio. Kurfürstendamm or Friedrichstraße are common shopping destinations in the city, particularly for the youth who are always on the lookout for familiar brand name products to add to their collection.
If you want to be in on the latest trends, you may also opt to patronize the smaller boutiques that proliferate in the vicinity. And if you get tired of window shopping, you can always cool your heels to sample a German pastry at neighboring cafes and restaurants.
