So much to see, so little time

Berlin is a huge, fascinating city, but lacks a real Old Town-type area. Attractions are fairly far-flung, so plan your itinerary and get acquainted with the excellent public transportation. If you're here for a limited amount of time, we recommend you join one of the walking tours to get your bearings and see the main sights.
Classic sights include the Brandenburger Tor and the nearby Reichstag with its glass dome, the Berliner Dom (the main cathedral), the museum-churches and concert house on Gendarmenmarkt and the Neue Synagoge. Fans of modern architecture shouldn't miss the Potsdamer Platz area and the Jewish Museum. Finally, you can't leave Berlin without a peek at one of the remnants of the Wall and the ruin of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church.

    I think it was fun to ride the elevator. Up on the roof there is a great view of the city and the roof itself is worth seeing.[...]
