The Landwehr Canal is a 10.7-kilometre-long canal in Berlin, Germany, built between 1845 and 1850. It connects the upper part of the Spree river in Friedrichshain with its lower part in Charlottenburg, flowing through Kreuzberg and Tiergarten. The canal is a popular recreational area, with riverside promenades and wide avenues along its banks, perfect for walking or jogging. In the spring and summer, residents and tourists flock to the canal's wide grassy banks to relax in the sun or under the weeping willows lining the water. The area where the Landwehr Canal cuts through the Tiergarten is particularly idyllic, with the water flowing through extensive park areas and flowering meadows all the way to the Berlin Zoo. The canal is also popular for boat tours, offering a unique perspective on Berlin's city centre
