Berlin, Germany’s capital, dates to the 13th century. Reminders of the city's turbulent 20th-century history include its Holocaust memorial and the Berlin Wall's graffitied remains. Divided during the Cold War, its 18th-century Brandenburg Gate has become a symbol of reunification. The city's also known for its art scene and modern landmarks like the gold-colored, swoop-roofed Berliner Philharmonie, built in 1963.
With elegant pre-war buildings and high-end boutiques, the western district of Charlottenburg is known for its upscale vibe. Shopping boulevard Kurfürstendamm (“Ku’damm”) is lined with hotels and department stores. Charlottenburg Palace and Park offer baroque interiors and landscaped gardens. Savignyplatz, a literary and performing arts hub pre-WWII, is now surrounded by Asian eateries drawing an international crowd.
Sprawling Kreuzberg is home to students, artists and a large Turkish population, with many restaurants around Kottbusser Tor. The quirky Bergmannkiez area is known for thrift shops, laid-back cafes and the landscaped Viktoriapark.
