Lichtenberg

At first sight the industrial area „Herzberge“ in Lichtenberg seems to be rough, dusty, ruined and desolate. Even though It is only twenty minutes away from the city center, you will feel a little bit as if you have gone astray. Between recycling yard, scrap and car dealers are today small niches, where you can find galleries and artist´s studios. Previously the area was a large industrial area, with a variety of state-owned enterprises of the former GDR. Today these abandoned factories and buildings get new usage concepts by artists, designers and musicians. But you can still find hints to the past history at nearly each of the places. Because many things are still improvised and imperfect it is a perfect contrast to the crowded places of the city.

A small arch of yellow letters marks the entrance of Don Xuan Center, but you won´t miss the wholesale market by following the only crowd of visitors in this area. Behind a dreary car park are the six halls of the vietnamese market. When you step into one of the halls you are also entering a different world – mountains of synthetic flowers, rows of colorful bags and clothing and towers of plastic toys are located in compartments left and right of the main hall. In the halls of so called „little Vietnam“ glittering nail studios are randomly followed by small restaurants, hairdressers and grocery stores. The best way to explore is to stroll between plastic chic and fascinating smells to find a curiosity to take away.
