Berlin is by far the busiest city I’ve ever been in at Christmas time! The place was cranking full tilt.

The Reichstag is a spectacular looking building in Berlin, which was used by the German parliament from 1894 to 1933.

I climbed to the top of the Berlin Siegessäule (Victory Monument). The monument was originally built to commemorate the Danish-Prussian War.

I visited the “Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe” and “Sinti and Roma memorials” in Berlin.

I visited the Brandenburg gate in Berlin. This is a huge concrete monolith built in 1791.
