Gärten der Welt, or the Gardens of the World, is an expansive park in Berlin's Marzahn-Hellersdorf district that offers a unique opportunity to experience garden art from around the globe. Originally established as a local recreation area in 1987, the site has grown into a renowned showcase of international garden culture, featuring a variety of themed gardens and landscapes that transport visitors to different regions of the world. Among the highlights are the Chinese Garden, Balinese Garden, Italian Renaissance Garden, Japanese Garden, and Oriental-Islamic Garden, each of which has been meticulously designed to reflect the culture and traditions of their respective regions.

The park features a variety of attractions and activities suitable for all ages. Visitors can take a ride on the cable car for a bird's-eye view of the beautifully landscaped gardens or explore the Maze and Labyrinth for an adventure on foot. Children can enjoy multiple themed playgrounds, including the water playground inspired by Erich Kästner's famous children’s novel “The 35th of May.” The Wolkenhain lookout, located atop Kienberg Hill, provides panoramic views of the surrounding area, making it an excellent spot for nature lovers and photographers.

In addition to the diverse gardens, Gärten der Welt hosts cultural events throughout the year, such as concerts, the Cherry Blossom Festival, and various seasonal celebrations. The park is also home to several art installations and architectural features that complement its garden displays. The International Garden Exhibition (IGA) 2017 helped expand and modernize the park, adding new features like a visitor center, conference space, and open-air arena for performances. Whether you're looking for cultural immersion, family activities, or a peaceful stroll, Gärten der Welt offers something for everyone.
