I've just returned from a 4 day trip to Berlin with my Boyfriend, another fabulous Birthday present!
I last visited Berlin when I was 14 and had some distant memories of the city and what I'd saw and learnt. Well a lot has changed in 12 years that's for sure! Berlin was remarkably quiet for a Capital, cheap yet still as historic and interesting as the first time around.
We crammed in quite a lot during our trip - a free walking tour, covering Brandenburg Gate, Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, Hitler's Bunker, Checkpoint Charlie, then on to Museum Island, Kreuzberg, DDR Museum, Topography of Terror and The East side Gallery. Here are some of my favourite photos from the trip - definitely got my creative juices flowing.
Oh and two restaurants I would recommend:
Hans Im Glück a burger bar and
DUDU a sushi restaurant, pics below!
