Pariser Platz and Brandenburg Gate (Brandenburger Tor)

Pariser Platz with the Brandenburger Tor is one of the main attractions everybody wants to see. Rebuild after the fall of the Berlin Wall it is no longer a place without buildings nobody is allowed to enter, but place surrounded by modern architecture with roots in the past and the Gate is no longer a symbol of a division but has become a symbol of the united Germany.

Gendarmenmarkt

With the pair of the Deutscher Dom (German Cathedral) and Französischer Dom (French Cathedral) flanking the Konzerthaus Gendarmenmarkt is one of the most beautiful squares in Europe.
