Great photos of such a fascinating city. Potsdammer Platz has really become a "downtown" for Berlin. When you took the pictures from on top of the Reichstag, where you able to take any pictures inside the Reichstag, and if so, could you post them?

Nice additions to your previous photos Spitfire. I like the Allianz Treptower, but the statue next to it in the river is amazing.

i was there in 2000. very interesting city....

the skyline is really disappointing, though. i remember there was a lot of hype several years ago with all the construction boom, but these days what berlin went through pales drastically in comparison to the megaboomtowns of Chinese cities and dubai.

I also remember the construction boom that went on quite a few years ago. The projects that were planned were all built, as far as I know, but they were built at the same time due to the fall of the Wall. I don't remember anyone saying that 80 story buildings were going to be built for two miles along a highway. It was construction that was appropriate for the location.

Does anybody have a shot of the Berliner Dom seen from a bridge near the Nicolaj Viertel. We were searching for a hotel in Berlin and we drove over the bridge about 10 times. You saw a something like congressbuilding, the spree (I think) and the Berliner Dom. Everytime we drove over it, i hoped we have to pass the bridge again.

The Tiergarten looks so densely forrested. I always thought it was very popular for picnics, etc. But it looks more like a dense forest than a city park.

The Reichstag really looks regal and beutiful. The government has done a fantastic job of returning it to its pre-Nazi splendor!

Great city.I have fond memories of my time there in 1998.Its changed alot since then.Alot of the construction has finished.

The East looks more glamours than the former western area of the city with all that new construction

Berlin isn't famous for it's skyline, but it was elected world's most exciting place three times by NY Times!!! And it's nightlife and cultural life is only comparable to Paris's, London's and NYC's...

I didn´t take these photos myself but
I´ll see if I can find what you seek.

Right you simply searched for them and liked them for example direct from my host. This way you created traffic I had to pay. If you really feed the need to link to other people's pictures you could at least ask for permission and/or mention the source!

You're right on both accounts. The park has many trees and from above in summer often looks like a forest, but in between the trees are countless paths, many streams and small rivers (and canals) and it is very popular for picnics. It is quite possibly the most densly "forested" city center park in the world, but despite this at ground level there are still so many open spaces.

I absolutely love Tiergarten!
It´s my favourite city park in the world
together with Stockholm´s stunning
Hagaparken.
The area around lake Havel
is also truly wonderful.

..thanks everybody for the pics..! ..nice.:!

i just recently updated my website and posted some of the Potsdamer Platz pictures I took every now and then over the past years..
..to who it may concern.:

http://www.bilderbook.org/berlin/potsdamer_platz/pictures/PIC00001.jpg (http://www.bilderbook.org/berlin/potsdamer_platz/pictures/)

I like this picture especially because you can easiely see how this "new city center" was built right in the middle on "nowhere" - and the towers are so nicely illuminated by night..:)

greetings, till..

Those pictures of Potsdamer Platz must be
at least five years old by now.
A lot of things has happened there
since then and it´s definitely
not in the middle of
nowhere.
It´s right in the heart of Berlin.
In one of at least three
different centers of
the city.
Wunderschön!

Was that dome above the Reischtag originally there before it got burnt in 1933 when Hitler came to power?

Kaene
August 28th, 2005, 01:24 PM
No but there was a different dome on top of it back then.
This is what it looked like back in 1918:
