Berlin was a city that many people I meet in my travels have high praises for. I ended up staying there for a week. About three days of this was spent travelling to Potsdam, which is about 20 kilometres outside of Berlin.
Berlin is currently in an interesting state of trying to merge a city that was divided between communism and democracy.
There seems to be plenty of development going on and the cities areas are in a state of flux.
This city has so much history and there are plenty of guides and attractions willing to tell you about how this city was at the centre of plunging many of the worlds countries into war with one another.
