Berlin Highlights — The Capital's Greatest Hits
Walk the royal axis through a city destroyed, divided, and gloriously rebuilt.
What's the walk about?
Welcome to Berlin, a city like no other in Europe: not a museum frozen in amber, but a capital endlessly destroyed, divided, and gloriously rebuilt. On this easy stroll you'll walk the grand royal axis the Hohenzollern kings laid out from the Brandenburg Gate to their palace, the historic boulevard of Unter den Linden lined with lime trees, palaces, and monuments. Along the way Berlin tells its whole astonishing story: imperial grandeur and Prussian learning, the scars of war and the cold line of the Wall, and the confident modern capital that has risen from it all. From the reborn Reichstag and its glass dome to the soaring TV Tower over Alexanderplatz, we'll trace a single west-to-east line through a city that has reinvented itself again and again. Let's discover the capital's greatest hits together.
