Berlin Hotels for Shopping

Berlin is one of the biggest cities in Europe (its population is 3,4 million of people) and along with it, it's, perhaps, one of the most fashionable and constantly changing cities. Since 1990 Berlin is the capital of Germany, but practically it still consists of 2 parts. When The Berlin Wall fell, Berlin became one of the musical centers of Europe that is attracting more and more musicians and art workers. And when trendy restaurants and clubs appeared, Berlin got back the reputation of the most fashionable European city.

The Berlin Wall. For about 30 years Berlin citizenry were separated by The Berlin Wall. It served as the boundary between the communist East and the capitalistic West. Nowadays the most part of it is pulled down, but by the clinkers in the pavement one can still notice, where the Wall used to be located. On the 9th of November 1989 The Berlin Wall was ruined. In a 2-year time after this symbolic event this hateful construction was practically damaged. The fragments of the Wall were sold as souvenirs. And the remains of the Wall still remind about the past. At Mühlenstraße the East Side Gallery is situated. It is a 1200-meter wall, which is painted by artists from all over the world. At Bernauerstrasse one can see the remains of The Berlin Wall with the holes that were made on the night from the 9th to the 10th of 1989. This is the memorial neutral place.
