About Berlijn

Berlijn is Duitslands creatieve, ruimdenkende hoofdstad, met monumenten uit een bewogen geschiedenis tussen kunst, parken en legendarisch nachtleven.

De Brandenburger Tor is het symbool van de stad, vlak bij de Reichstag met zijn glazen koepel en het Monument voor de vermoorde Joden van Europa. Stukken van de Berlijnse Muur zijn bewaard gebleven, het opvallendst bij de East Side Gallery, een lang stuk vol muurschilderingen, en bij het gedenkteken aan de Bernauer Strasse, terwijl Checkpoint Charlie de beroemdste voormalige grensovergang markeert.

Top-ranked sights in Berlijn: Brandenburg Gate (Brandenburger Tor), Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (Holocaust Memorial), Checkpoint Charlie.
