Berlin is a very popular destination from Prague, and it is only 4-5 hours by train. For some reason, I have never visited the Germany's capital before. It should be exciting experience.
My first city's sight was the Charlottenburg Palace, the largest and most opulent palace in Berlin, built in the late 17th century. I could not go inside the palace, but the gardens around are also stunning, with their perfectly manicured lawns, fountains, and classical statues. I have heard, that this place could be an ideal peaceful escape from the city.
Before I continue with exploring the city, I need to check in at the hotel. Very good location, comfortable room and everything is just perfect. If someone is interested in a good accommodation for a good price, it is definitely Martas Hotel Berlin-Mitte.
Now I am on the western end of the Unter Den Linden. Making photo under the Brandenburg Gate, built in the late 18th century. It originally served as a neoclassical city gate, marking the entrance to the historic center of Berlin. During the Cold War, it stood as a symbol of division, as it was located near the Berlin Wall, but after the wall’s fall in 1989, it became a powerful symbol of German reunification.
Here is The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Indeed, a deeply moving and somber site in Berlin. You have a strange feeling of being lost, confused and isolated here.
Finally, it is time to eat and to try some local delicatessen. Currywurst is one of Berlin's most beloved street foods, famous for its simple and delicious combination of sausage and curry sauce. The dish consists of a fried pork sausage, sliced and smothered in a spicy ketchup-based sauce mixed with curry powder. I really love it!
And the evening was in a popular rooftop bar Monkey. Good vibe, nice music, delicious cocktails, stunning panoramic views. You should book it in advance!
