"Treptower Park has a special place in the hearts of locals and hipster alike. Set alongside the river Spree in the district of Alt Treptow, it’s basically an extension of Kreuzberg and is characterized by its pleasant riverside; the city’s most striking Soviet memorial, whose underground crypt holds some 5,000 Soviet soldiers; the adjacent Plänterwald, where an abandoned Spreepark is awaiting rejuvenation by the city; and the Insel der Jugend, an idyllic little island where you can rent pedalos and kayaks or just enjoy a beer and a picnic and watch the river traffic float by." - MATADOR_NETWORK
