It is like Hoxton (East London) has taken over a city. Everyone has asymmetrical haircuts and rides bicycles. Some ideas: - a walking tour is a good idea - gives you a good sense of the city - I also did a bus tour (I always do on city breaks - particularly good here to see the difference between East and West Berlin) - the Pergamon museum is good (the equivalent of the British Museum and has another bit of the Babylon Gate in I think, which is pretty cool) - Potsdamer Platz is very reminiscent of Canary Wharf (was heavily bombed in the war, now built up with tall and shiny buildings). Hmm - can't think of anything else at the moment. I only spent a long weekend there. Hi Swiv,
