Port Description

Berlin, Germany

Renewed and reunified, East now meets West in Berlin without a trace of barbed wire. Bradenburg Gate still stands, but all that is left of the Berlin Wall remains at a memorial dedicated in 1998. Today, the city hums with opera houses and cathedrals. The glass dome of the Reichstag sparkles and Museum Island holds a trove of treasures. The fascinating Jewish Museum is among many new offerings. While in the oasis of Tiergarten Park, be sure to discuss local topics such as Herman Hesse and the avant-garde architectural boom over a steaming cup of coffee or a frosty mug of beer.
