A city once known more for its division than its fascinating history and architecture, Berlin is now unshakably unified and a highly modern, cosmopolitan city that offers a fantastic opportunity to experience a uniquely German way of life through the city’s many museums, public squares and festivals.

Consider the history of these millennium-old walls and admire the works of art in these impressive ruins on a stunning riverside location.

Escape the city and head to one of the world’s largest urban parks, which has lakes and meadows, as well as beer gardens and a variety of interesting relics.

Beneath its six soaring towers, immerse yourself in over a millennium’s worth of history at the city’s opulent sandstone cathedral.

Explore the Baroque mansions, museums and fountains dotted around the picturesque landscape gardens that make up this large outdoor complex.
