This is Berlin
Berlin is the capital of Germany and its largest city, on the River Spree in the north-east of the country. It grew from a pair of medieval trading towns into the capital of Prussia and of the German Empire, was bombed to ruins in 1945 and split by a wall for 28 years, and it carries the marks of all of that in its streets, from the Brandenburg Gate to the remains of the Wall.
- The Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag, symbols of a divided and then united Germany
- The Berlin Wall, which split the city from 1961 to 1989
- Museum Island, with the Pergamon Museum and the bust of Nefertiti
- Currywurst, döner kebab and a nightlife that runs until morning
