72 hrs True Italian Food Festival, the map
To guide you through the various places and streets of Berlin, we have created the 72 hrs True Italian Food Festival Map, a map based on the Berlin underground cartography in which all areas of the city are visible and the respective participating establishments are located. Inside you will also find for each restaurant its address and the speciality offered.
The map is available as a downloadable PDF and on Google Maps. A few days before the event, it will also be available as a printed version inside the participating restaurants or at the True Italian office in Gryphiusstr. 26, Berlin Friedrichshain.
