This is the famuos quote from the speech by President J.F.Kennedy during a visit to West Berlin in 1963

In Berlin you can travel around the world in a day. The only condition is that you have to like walking. Few cities have seen as many changes over recent years as Berlin. The two separate entities that existed before the Wall came down have become one again. There’s hardly a trace left of the former east-west division. The new architecture on Potsdamer Platz and in the government quarter forms a fascinating contrast to the late 19th century buildings of Charlottenburg. One minute you’re on an elegant boulevard, the next you’re in one of the city’s more alternative neighbourhoods. But the city is not only renowned for its architectural monuments; it also has museums, green oases and nightlife galore.
Definitely it s worth to spend a weekend there, to have a feel of the controversies that flood the capital of Germany.

To try:
– Mustafa’s Gemüse Kebap: best döner in town
– East Side Gallery: walk along 1.3 km of Berliner Mauer, painted by some of the most famous graffiti artists.
– Deutsches Museen of History
– Prenzlauerberg quarter: vibrant collection of pubs bars clubs
– Curry 36: best currywurst in town!
