Berlin has large parks in the city, and even larger ones at the edges. It doesn't only work as a suburb - people in any central Kiez are within walking distance of a park.

I love that city for that. Milan felt claustrophobic without all the parks.

Due to the unique history and political situation (city state), the city also just "suddenly ends", with little suburban sprawl. That said, Germany is so densely populated overall that there are few areas of "untouched" nature that the topl level commenter seems to be craving for.

Germany has almost no untouched nature, it's true. But even a giant garden can feel nice :)
