Appreciate how the juxtaposition of styles reveals Berlin's unique character, blending tradition and innovation in surprising ways.
Berlin Palace/Humboldt Forum
Explore the Berlin Palace, a site that has served as a royal residence, a symbol of East German 'democracy,' and now a modern museum complex known as the Humboldt Forum. Discover its long history, from its origins as a royal palace to its current role as a center for art, culture, and science. The reconstructed facade belies the building's relatively recent construction.
Gendarmenmarkt
Discover Gendarmenmarkt, considered by many to be Berlin's most beautiful square. Admire the harmonious architecture, including the Konzerthaus Berlin, the French Cathedral, and the German Cathedral. Reflect on the square's dark history, as the site of Nazi book burnings, and appreciate its current role as a vibrant cultural center.

Tiergarten
Escape the urban bustle in Tiergarten, one of Berlin's largest and most beautiful parks. Enjoy a leisurely stroll, rent a boat on the lake, or simply relax in the shade of the trees. Despite its name ('Garden of Animals'), Tiergarten was not originally used as a zoo, but rather as a royal hunting ground.
