Reader Reviews
This review is from: Eyewitness Travel Guide to Berlin (Paperback) Just got back from a trip to Europe. Thought before hand that Prague or Paris would have been my favorite city. Although everything you may have heard about Prague is true- it is the most charming and beautiful place I've ever been - Berlin is simply magnificant. I recently read, in a book (name escapes me) "Berlin is always in a state of becoming and never in a state of being." That was first said around 1900 and it again holds true 100 years later. That in part, is what makes Berlin so magnificant. It has so many things that no other city in Europe has. Bombastic imperialistic architecture lies within bombastic communistic showpiece architecture, which lies next to classic baroque architecture, which all lies next to ultra modern architecture. West Berlin the capitalist show piece during the Cold War and East Berlin was the communist show piece. United as one- Berlin is in the state of becoming Europe's showpiece. This guide takes you through Berlin like no other guide could possibly do. I had the unfortunate circumstance of being in Berlin a few weeks before this guide came out. I hit the main sights -but missed so much more because I used Time Out! It is unfortunate because this guide is so much better- save the lack of hostel information... but it shows you everything you could possibly want to see and do and know.. From strolling down the beautiful Unter den Linden to sitting in the Lustgarten or roaming through the green arces of the Tiergarten...or even soaring to the top of the television tower. Eyewitness Guide will take you there. If I could be anywhere in the world right now, I'd be anywhere and everywhere in between the Brandenburg Gate and Alexander Platz. If you're thinking of going to Berlin- stop thinking and go... If you're thinking of buying this guide, stop thinking and buy. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
