Mesmerising Berlin

Spectrum of Germany

Berlin is the capital of Germany. It is a world city of culture, politics, media, and science.
Berlin is well known for its festivals, diverse architecture, nightlife, contemporary arts, and a high quality of living.

The Reichstag building is part of a number of government buildings that you need to check out. The Gendarmenmarkt is one of the most stunning squares you will find in the city.

The Brandenburg Gate is Berlin’s signature attraction. It is one of Germany’s most visited landmarks and an icon of the city of Berlin. During its more than 300-year history, it has played many different roles. It has been a symbol for peace, war, victory, terror and war.

There are about 200 museums in Berlin. You will find some of the most important ones all in one spot at the “Museumsinsel”, the Museum Island in the Spree river that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Gedenkstatte Berliner Mauer is a wall in memory of the Victims of the Wall. You will get a real feel there!

The history of Potsdamer Platz has been eventful. It changed completely after the fall of the wall in 1989 and is now dominated by the presence of the Sony Center, skyscrapers and endless shops.

The Berlin Television Tower, known as Fernsehturm, stand outs of the skyline at 368m, making it the tallest building in Berlin. You can enjoy a unique 360 degrees panorama of the city.

The magnificent Charlottenburg Palace is located just out of the centre. The beautiful palace hosts fine collections of china and paintings.

Berlin has more bridges than Venice. And there is not only the Spree river, there are many more like the Havel or the Panke. And there are about 70 lakes in and around Berlin.

If there is anything you really need to eat in Berlin, it is a Currywurst. A hot sausage cut in slices with ketchup and curry powder. It is Germany’s most popular fast food.

There is no where in the world that can compete with Berlin when it comes to the diversity of it’s nightlife. Berlin is the hippest city in the world, which means you can find everything from pubs housed in derelict ruins to funky beach bars.
