5
Stop 5

This collection of museums belongs to the Champions Leaugue of World Heritage - and stunningly beautiful. After riding through the small yet big, crowded yet empty streets, you understand, why IT is also called the Athens of the Spree.

6
Stop 6

Looks like IT was built in the 1600's, but only about 60 years older than the post modern TV-Tower - welcome to Berlin.

7

First palace of the king, then palace for the "democracy" of the GDR and now a bundle of museums in a building looking much older than IT is.

8
Stop 8

A stunning panorama! Berlin's oldest university, the old opera, a catholic cathedral, a hotel which serves once as a bank, a guard's house looking like a temple etc - simply the classic centre! And not to forget: the place where the Nazis showed their evil nature by burning thousands of books in front of the public.

9
Stop 9

Having to endure four reconstructions, this opera is still most famously known for being the first in the world open to the common folk.

12
Stop 12

13
Stop 13

Roaring traffic cross and place to be at night in the "Roaring Twenties", followed by the very definition of NO man's land during the division of Berlin, Europe's biggest construction site around the Millennium, defining Berlin's complex attempt of reuniting what was formerly torn apart.

14
Stop 14

How to deal with the indescribable crimes committed by Nazi Germany? Germany tries not to bury IT's dark past. IT tries to learn from IT. You need to see IT by yourself!

15
Stop 15

Dive in and take a deep breath in one of Berlins biggest parks whose name (Garden of the Animals) has NO relation to its former use as a Zoo.

16
Stop 16

THE icon of Berlin - for many reasons

17
Stop 17

Germany's parliament, surrounded by the modern government quarter, shows IT's transparent dome with pride.

18

A lot of funny stories are being told about Germany's White House, most of them aren't true - you know, Germans aren't into jokes.

19
Stop 19

**Only incl. in the German version of this tour** This famous and liveable district is the very example for Berlin's transformation since IT's reunification. Fancy bohemian flavour? This distraction gives you the answer.
