Overview of Berlin
The city, which was divided for 28 years, is the capital of reunified Germany. Beyond the last remnants of that era (including its "famous" Wall), the city offers countless museums, vibrant neighbourhoods, interesting buildings and monuments, parks (plus lakes and forests on the outskirts), and an intense, diverse cultural and nightlife scene. For many, Berlin is by far the most interesting city in the country.
