The German capital combines history and modernity like no other metropolis: from the imposing Brandenburg Gate to the multifaceted art and cultural scene and lively neighborhood cafés. A city full of contrasts, where the past meets innovation.
When people think of Berlin, the first thing that probably comes to mind is its most famous landmark – the Brandenburg Gate. A symbol of division for decades, the monument has always been at the heart of a major city bursting with ideas, inspiration, art, culture and creativity. Wonderful residential areas, sophisticated galleries and the Kurfürstendamm – the very definition of an exclusive shopping street – can all be found in the west of the city. And the nightlife is not to be missed, either.
Berlin's prestigious Unter den Linden boulevard extends eastwards, passing the Museum Island UNESCO World Heritage Site as well as numerous buildings that he been instrumental in the city's history.
