"Berlin Highlights" by Bike

Did you know that half of Berlin's households don't own a car? Berliners like to bike. The city is flat, green, and highly accessible by bike with lanes and quiet streets, even in the centre! Go back into Prussian history, Hitler's Nazi-dictatorship and learn what life was like in the former East. The very green city of Berlin is surprisingly bike friendly with a geographical flatness much like Amsterdam full of quiet side streets and bike paths.

Guided walk Berlin architecture
The fall of the Wall gave Berlin the rare opportunity to redesign its city centre. Fully destroyed in World War II, the wasteland of Potsdamer and Leipziger Platz remained untouched during the Cold War as part of the 'no-man's land' in the middle of the city. With its spectacular architecture, enticing cafés, restaurants, movie houses, a film museum and a shopping centre. A visit to the Reichstag gives the visitors a possibility to see a unique combination of a historical monument combined with modern art and design. This is one of the most famous sightseeing attractions of Berlin.

Memorial for the murdered Jews of Europe
The 19,000 square-meter Memorial for the murdered Jews of Europe consists of 2711 stones placed on sloping, uneven ground in an undulating wave-like pattern, giving visitors the feeling of insecurity as though the stones were on unstable ground.Visitors can wander on their own through the maze of stones, as though visiting a graveyard with nameless tombstones.
