Cosmopolitan Berlin

For most of the latter part of the 20th century, Berlin stood as a symbol of the division between East and West, split by the infamous fortified wall erected to separate the Communist East from the democratic West. When the Berlin Wall was pulled down 20 years ago, the city discovered that it suddenly had two of everything, most notably two very distinct societies separated both socially and economically. The past decade has seen Berlin embrace unification and rebuilding itself as a modern European capital. These days Berlin has much to offer visitors including the Brandenburg Gate, the magestic Schloss Charlottenburg Palace, the Spandau Citadel and more. Alternatively, why not simply enjoy the many restaurants, bars and shops that this thriving, cosmopolitan city has to offer?
