Admission: Free
Address: Unter den Linden, Berlin
Commissioned by Friedrich Wilhelm II in 1700.
In the 1900s this was one of the busiest squares in the whole of Europe and when the Berlin Wall was built it had a platform that allowed Westerners to look over the wall and into the eastern part of the city. After many years, recent restoration and renovation have created a vibrant area, full of shops, bars, restaurants and many other venues.
Once again it is a thriving square and is rapidly becoming the heart of the city. There are many modern constructions and the Sony Centre has a large, contemporary roof that resembles a sail. For some of the best views in the city, visit Panorama-Point, which is situated at the very top of the tall Kollhof building. A lift is available and it is thought to be the fastest lift in Europe. The Potsdamer Platz is easy to reach by either U-Bahn, S-Bahn or bus.

The Fernsehturm television tower is the tallest
structure in the whole of the city and features
both an observation platform and also a
restaurant, which revolves slowly.
Before it was developed as a showpiece road, Unter den Linden was just a simple riding path that connected the Tiergarten to the Berliner Stadtschloss. The enormous linden trees were planted in the 17th century, but the striking blend of neoclassical and baroque structures continued to be built for another 100 years.

Located in the Southwest of Tiergarten, this is the oldest zoo of Germany. Today there are more than 14,000 animals of 1,500 species are found in this zoological garden. The main attractions of this zoo include animals like orang-utans, rhinos, penguins, giraffes, zebras, elephants and Bao Bao. Beside the zoo there is a large tri floored aquarium where you can find fish, amphibians, insects and reptiles such as crocodile, poison frogs, octopuses and 'Nemo' or clownfish.
Alexanderplatz is one of Berlin's most famous
squares and is a must for any visitor. Since the
end of Communist rule in the former East
Germany, Alexanderplatz has undergone
numerous changes and much "Westernisation".
The mix of East and West is clear to see in this
fascinating part of Berlin.
