Berlin - diverse, contemporary and artistic, Berlin is one of the great cultural cradles of Europe, a capital city of intense contrast and divisive heritage. From its origins as a pivotal trade route in the 13th century to its harrowing division throughout the Cold War, the city has long been at the forefront of global political and cultural change, staking its claim as one of the world's most influential and essential cities.
Or, as David Bowie once said. "Berlin, the greatest cultural extravaganza that one could imagine."
