Berghain/Panorama Bar Top Pick!

OUT Review

Best advice to get into what's touted as "the world's best techno club" is shut up in line. Sound easy? Not when the wait is two hours long. To avoid it, go early (midnight) or late (7 A.M.)-better yet, go early, get a stamp, and come back later-but keep groups small, dress casual or crazy, and leave your camera at home (they get confiscated and returned upon exit). So debauched, straight people want in on the action. The formidable sound system pounds until midday in this converted Communist-era power plant with massive labyrinth interior and boisterous sex maze. Upstairs is Panorama Bar, open all weekend and more hetero than the main floor, Berghain, which witnesses a frenzy of life-altering magnitude every Saturday night. It's worth the wait.
