City: Berlin!

Berlin is the capital city of Germany and offers a tremendous number of interesting cultural events, museums and sightseeing attractions directly in the city and its surrounding area. Berlin is the "gateway" to the eastern part of Europe. The city is easily reachable and the site of many significant political milestones not only in the history of Germany but of Europe and the world.

Twenty five years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the capital has its own attraction. She projects itself as a modern, cosmopolitan and creative city at the heart of Europe.

For every visitor, the city offers a very personal experience: from cultural institutions such as museums and operas to partying in one of the many clubs. Nearly no other city has survived such a moved history, has so rapidly changed and invents itself new again and again.  And for those who look for relaxation: In Berlin a fast paced metropolis and relaxing rest areas in nature are not far apart. Whether in Tiergarten, Tempelhofer Freiheit or Grunewald – every district has its green oasis.
