Berlin
Berlin is the capital and one of the sixteen states of Germany. With a population of 3.5 million within city limits, it is the largest city in the country, as well as being the second most populous city and the seventh most populous urban area in the European Union. Located in northeastern Germany, it is the center of the Berlin-Brandenburg metropolitan area, which includes 5 million people from more than 190 nations. Located on the great European plain, Berlin is influenced by a seasonal temperate climate. About a third of the area of the city is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers and lakes.
Tourism
Since German reunification in 1990, Berlin has become an increasingly popular tourist spot. History coexists with art, culture, technology, bohemia and politics. Besides being German capital, it is the most important city-state of the country.
The historic center of the city is along Unter den Linden avenue with baroque and neoclassical buildings and on Museum Island, site of an impressive collection of museums from the 19th and 20th centuries. To the south of Unter den Linden is Checkpoint Charlie, an inheritance of the city divided during the Cold War. The extensive green space of the Tiergarten and the Kurfürstendamm, the center of West Berlin, lie to the west. In the surroundings are the magnificent palaces of Potsdam, now almost a suburb of Berlin.
The nightlife in Berlin has a life of its own, with cafés gleaming along the sidewalks, illuminated sights, fully functioning sex shops, nightclubs and parties. Headquarters of one of the most important film festivals in the world, Berlin has its own dialect, which is not a problem for German speakers, let alone for those who do not speak.
The eastern side is worth as a bonus: walking down its streets reveals another city, perhaps more thought-provoking, enthralling and dangerous. Wherever you are in Berlin, for all possible reasons, stay tuned to this multifaceted city.
