Berlin is located in Northeastern Germany, a few miles from the Polish and Czech borders and on the Havel and Spree Rivers. The city is ideally located to tour castles, historic sites and lovely countryside areas in addition to spending time exploring one of the great capitols of the world. Berlin is one of the most important cities in Europe and is a beautiful city to visit - you can take in a multitude of sites as well as eat well, enjoy the nightlife, eat to your hearts delight and discover the heart of Germany. While you might be interested in visiting Berlin to visit the Berlin Wall or explore old East Germany, you might be disappointed. What remains of the Berlin Wall are stretches of graffiti covered walls that in no way resemble the Weeping Wall in Israel or the Great Wall of China. This great city is the seat of history for Europe - the capitol of Prussia and the headquarters of the Hitler regime (a dubious honor), Berlin is definitely one city you must see when visiting Germany. Whether you are a fan of German culture, a history buff, or a music enthusiast, you need to include Berlin on your itinerary.
