Hand on heart, Berlin is one of the best places that I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. Jam-packed with more history than you could ever fit into one city break (and home of the best hot chocolate I've found to date), Berlin won me over, fair and simple. And here are the top five reasons why:
The TV Tower – or Berliner Fernsehturm, if you will. Jack and I (and my dad, for that matter) have a thing for going to the highest point that we can to ~really~ take a city in. In Berlin, that was the TV tower. We had breakfast here on our first morning and looked out as the German city rotated around us (or as we rotated around it, should I say). Plus, it was a great point of reference whenever we got lost. If we could see the TV tower, we knew how to get home!
The Berliner Dom, i.e. Berlin's Cathedral. We had to pay for the pleasure of going inside but boy oh boy am I glad we did. I remember walking into the central room and just stopping in awe at the breathtaking beauty of the ceiling. I bloody love cathedrals, I must say. Better still, we climbed to the very top and waked the 360° around the building. The views weren't quite as good as from the TV tower, but I would 10/10 recommend.
The zoo – and if you're shocked by that statement, you don't know me from Adam. Berlin's is by far one of the best zoos I've been to (are you sensing a theme here?). Jack and I found the hippos particularly fascinating... that is until they started to eat their own poo. Yep. Hippos are p-r-e-t-t-y gross. My only regret is not getting a picture in-front of the incredible elephant entrance gate to the park. But there's always next time...
The history. Having focused on WWII and the Cold War for most of my history education, Berlin sure was interesting. The remainder of the Berlin Wall (albeit heavily spray-painted) was a heart-dropping thing to see, along with the bright pink pipes near Checkpoint Charlie that symbolised where the wall once stood.
And last (but ~certainly~ not least), the hot chocolate. It was to die for. And, in true Forrest Gump style, that's all I've got to say about that.

ReplyDeleteAm so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR.
