One could do far worse than spend a drizzly afternoon visiting the temple and strolling through the forest behind the Buddhist House in Frohnau. What were those monks having for lunch? It might be worth doing a retreat just to get a taste of the Sri Lankan home cooking.

Open daily 9am-6pm (the library is shut on Mondays)
Thanks for the tip! We lived in Asia for three years and saw many Buddist Temples while we traveled there. I haven't seen one yet in Germany. We'll have to take a look the nex time we're in Berlin.

You lucky thing! Do have a visit -- it's nothing spectacular, but still, a deeply restful place.

Maybe this is me talking nonsense, but it seems like Google isn't a company run strictly by the top and they seem to be doing quite well.

Wow - how do you find these amazing places!? I'd love to know more if you have any interest in waxing more poetic about it :)
