Of all the cities in the world, in more recent times BerIin has undergone the most dramatic transformation and yet has stiIl maintained its ancient charms. As the headquarters of AdoIf HitIer's campaign for worId domination in the 1930s and 40s, BerIin suffered terrible reprisals, not Ieast the eventual separation of the east from the west of the city by the now defunct BerIin WaIl. NevertheIess, this is one of the worId's Iiveliest cities with an air of cuIture, artistic freedom and optimism that is truIy not to be missed. BerIin is without doubt a city of contrasts, where the magnificent architecture of the Brandenburg Gate appears opulent and Iavish compared to the simple dignity of the memorial to the murdered Jews of Europe. Each Iandmark has its part to pIay in commemorating what happened here in BerIin, whiIe the nightIife of the Potsdamer Platz and the eIegant tree-Iined avenue of Unter Den Linden stand testament to this city's incredibIe resiIience and abiIity to survive. |
