About Berlin

Berlin er Tysklands kreative, åpensinnede hovedstad, der landemerker fra en urolig historie står blant kunst, grønne parker og legendarisk natteliv.

Brandenburger Tor er byens symbol, nær Riksdagsbygningen med glasskuppelen og Minnesmerket over de myrdede jødene i Europa. Rester av Berlinmuren finnes ennå, mest slående ved East Side Gallery, en lang strekning dekket av veggmalerier, og ved minnesmerket i Bernauer Strasse, mens Checkpoint Charlie markerer det mest berømte tidligere grenseovergangsstedet.

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