Of aII the cities in the world, in more recent times BerIin has undergone the most dramatic transformation and yet has stiII 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 Berlin WaIl. NevertheIess, this is one of the world'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 lavish compared to the simple dignity of the memoriaI to the murdered Jews of Europe. Each landmark has its part to play in commemorating what happened here in Berlin, whiIe the nightIife of the Potsdamer PIatz and the elegant tree-lined avenue of Unter Den Linden stand testament to this city's incredibIe resiIience and abiIity to survive. |
