Description

Rathauspark is a lovely park area that has been cultivating itself for over 260 years. It's a 10,800-square-metre area that sits in the dead center of the town Ekner, laying on the south-eastern outskirts of Berlin. The park features many rare trees such as the Japanese cherry blossom, the ginkgo, and the Caucasian wingnut, as well some dense bushes that delight partygoers. Due to various festivals that occur at the park such as arts markets and the children's festival, the park only becomes a gay area after midnight. Then the area transforms into a sensual landscape where people meet and take their hookups.

There is no information anywhere about how long the park has been known to turn into a gay area in the night, but we can assume for quite some time if it has earned that reputation.
