Berlin, Germany

From its fashion to its architecture to its political history, Berlin has always been edgy. The Berlin Wall is a sobering reminder of the hyper-charged postwar atmosphere, and yet the graffiti art that now covers its remnants has become symbolic of social progress. Check out the Weltzeituhr (world time) Clock, topped by a model of the solar system, then turn back time by dining at the historic Zur Letzten Instanz, a 16th century restaurant that was frequented by Napoleon and Beethoven. The Potsdam Conference took place here and is one of the most important historical events of the 20th century. It is regarded worldwide as a symbol for the end of the Second World War and the outbreak of the Cold War, which led to the division of Europe through the “Iron Curtain” and the construction of the “Wall”. Lovely setting amid parkland and lakes. #eventcelebration #templeblessed #uniquehotel #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes
