Situated on a major travel route in the 1790s, Berlin had more hotels by the 1900s than neighboring Ocean City. Today, the relaxed pace of life, character and friendliness of this Worcester County city is difficult to match. The Old Globe Theater crowns the restored downtown historic district, offering a bevy of shops with an art gallery, movie festivals and life music, and a charming café. Berlin offers a rare environment in today’s world, the pleasures of small-town living where every convenience is within walking distance. Nearby attractions include the Stephen Decatur Park, harness racing, and public golf courses.
