The longest remaining section of the Berlin Wall is the East Side Gallery, an open-air art gallery. It features over 100 murals celebrating peace and freedom, a powerful symbol of the city's reunification.
Imagine standing where President Reagan famously declared, 'Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!' Your local guide can take you to the Brandenburg Gate, sharing the impact of these words on Berlin's history.
Checkpoint Charlie was the most famous crossing point between East and West Berlin during the Cold War. It was the site of tense standoffs and dramatic escapes, a true icon of the divided city.
The area between the two barriers of the Berlin Wall was called the 'death strip.' This heavily guarded zone with watchtowers and obstacles was a stark reminder of the risks people took for freedom.
