Berlin Guide

"Berlin is never really Berlin; Berlin is always just becoming." This phrase has been in use for a few centuries in Germany but there never was more truth to it than these days. After the former largest construction site in Europe, the Potsdamer Platz, has become a bustling center of the new Berlin and the first difficulties of a once divided and now reunified city were overcome, Berlin today presents itself to the visitor as one of the most dynamic cities on the continent.

Berlin is in motion, and although it is currently undergoing a financial crisis due to past mismanagement and a conflict of interests concerning some construction projects are slowing the enthusiasm to some extent, the rapidity of change is hardly stalled. 

Berlin, that is several centuries of Prussian and German history, the Golden Twenties, that is depression, the rise of the Nazis, that's war destruction, the Berlin air lift and the wall as well as the fall of the wall or the love parade. This multi-faceted German capital that Berlin is today attracts countless visitors every year who enjoy the dynamic mix of a 3,4 million inhabitants' metropolis and the many idyllic nature spots surrounding it: for the most part lakes like the Wannsee or the Müggelsee, but also forests and rural farmland.
