The architecture of Berlin is fascinating, mainly as a result of the former division between the “communist” East and the “capitalist” West for many years. Different styles of building were favoured in the two different parts of the city. The diversity of nationalities and different religions means that churches, synagogues and mosques are well represented in the city centre.
But Berlin also has something to offer nature lovers. In the centre of Berlin, you can visit Europe’s biggest botanical garden. It covers an area of 42 hectares and contains over 18,000 different varieties of plant. Just outside the city, there are a number of magnificent castles, with the most beautiful gardens that Germany has to offer. They are perfect for people who want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and relax.
