Very nice. My only time visiting Berlin was for the Christmas Markets and I was too focused on mulled wine! I need to go back during the year and actually explore these monuments.

This has been one of my favorites too, but I never knew that a traveler could go inside. Thanks for the details on its history. Every time I've passed it, the doors have been closed. I will try to visit it next month after I sit at Zum Nussbaum—Reiner's favorite Berlin spot—and toast to #travel and #history.

This is great. Thanks so much for all the pictures, especially the older ones. One thing I always do when I visit places is imagine what the place was like for people in the past. The history of places I visit is one of the biggest allures for me.
