The city is home to countless museums, galleries, opera houses, and theatres as well as the “Berlinale” as one of Europe’s most popular film festivals. It also has an incredible “foodie” scene, with cuisines from all over the world and restaurants, cafes, and bistros for every budget. Germany is the most popular option for international students looking to study in Europe due to its its high-quality education, career opportunities, and 18-month post-study visa, all of which you can experience with Gisma.
