Germany is famed across the globe for its rich culture, delicious food and world-class beer. Tourists taking flights to Berlin may find that there is even more than meets the eye during the Carnival of Cultures event, taking place at the end of May.

The festival aims to promote the cultural diversity that makes modern Berlin one of the most vibrant and cosmopolitan cities in Europe. Tourists visiting the city on vacation can witness authentic dancing, music and extravagant parades throughout the event. Many of the floats featured in the procession are adorned with fancy decorations and the performers riding them often wear flamboyant costumes.

As well as the revelry that the event is famous for, the Carnival of Cultures also aims to highlight important social issues facing Germany and the world, including environmentalism and responsible industry.

The festival could be an ideal way for tourists taking flights to Germany to learn more about the diverse communities that make Berlin such an international city. After the parade has finished, travelers should check out other sights such as the Brandenburg Gate, the Pariser Platz and the Victory Column.
