If you don't want to drop the steep fee for the ride up the TV Tower, your next best option is heading up to the rooftop Panorama Terrasse, the open-air lounge of the Park Inn Hotel for sweeping city views some 150m above Alexanderplatz. Grab a sun lounger and relax with a cold beer or look on as gutsy baseflyers leap off the edge of the building (Friday to Sunday only).
Attached to a special winch rappel system usually used by stuntmen, these daredevils plunge towards the ground in a controlled fall, reaching near free-fall speeds.
