Not so long ago in the year 1969, a wondrous amusement park opened in East Berlin. It was called Spreepark Berlin and it remained open until 2002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Spreepark Berlin was the only amusement park in the GDR at the time. It was built on a large concreted area and was packed with rides, games, and other stalls. The green area featured many restaurants and more solid structures. The biggest attraction was the 45 meter high Ferris wheel with 36 gondolas. Every year, almost 1.7 million visitors came to the park. As a West Berliner, I never got to go to the Spreepark Berlin, but after countless interactions with bright eyed former visitors, you just knew it was an unforgettable experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
