The Journey
Museum Island
Discover Berlin's Museum Island, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where five world-renowned museums—the Altes Museum, Neues Museum (home to the bust of Nefertiti), Alte Nationalgalerie, Bode Museum, and Pergamon Museum—showcase art and artifacts spanning millennia. Marvel at the island's imposing architecture while immersing yourself in the rich cultural heritage housed within its walls. A must-visit for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
Government District
Explore Berlin's Government District, the political heart of Germany. Witness the iconic Reichstag Building (Bundestag), home to the German parliament, and the modern Chancellery. Observe the Paul-Löbe-Haus, housing parliamentary committees, and the exclusive bridge over the Spree reserved for government use. This area provides a compelling glimpse into German democracy and architectural prowess.
Berlin Cathedral
Visit the Berlin Cathedral (Berliner Dom), Germany's largest evangelical church and a magnificent example of late 19th-century architecture. Climb to the dome for panoramic city views, explore the Hohenzollern crypt, and admire the intricate mosaics and stained glass. Its location near Museum Island makes it a convenient and culturally enriching stop.
Checkpoint Charlie
Experience Checkpoint Charlie, the former border crossing between East and West Berlin during the Cold War. Now a major tourist attraction, it serves as a poignant reminder of the city's divided past. Visit the nearby Mauermuseum (Wall Museum) to learn about the ingenious escape attempts and the history of the Berlin Wall. This iconic site offers a powerful and moving historical perspective.
Know Before You Go
