We left Berlin with a desire to return: we like this big city with a suburban feel, its eclectic

and West halves. We will be interested to see how Berlin changes after all of the construction
when it is firmly established as Germany's capital.

tower to show-off technological prowess). Besides the tower, cranes dominate Berlin's skyline while the
city continues its massive construction efforts. |
