Yesterday morning I flew from Brussels to Berlin, checked in to my hotel, and
spent several hours walking around the city. Mostly, I stayed in the former
East Berlin, by far the more interesting part.
An image from outside my hotel, the Marienkirche and the TV tower on
Alexanderplatz:

The tower was built in the 1960s and was the pride and joy of the then DDR.
Today it is one of united Berlin’s main tourist attractions.
Street art, in a space called Urban Spree, near the Warschauer Strasse metro
station:

I had a beer in this bar in Urban Spree:

After looking at this mural at the bar, I asked the owner if he was Norwegian
(in German). He was indeed. Althought I also heard him speaking Spanish to some
customers. That is typical Berlin these days.

Warschauer Strasse. Berlin is increasingly becoming a bicycle city like
Amsterdam or Copenhagen:
