I also know that this is normally not the kind of articles that you find here at ghacks but I thought it would be nice to post some pictures that I took during my Berlin visit. Berlin is an amazing city with old and new buildings alike comparable to cities such as London, Paris and Rome but a lot cheaper than the mentioned cities.

The following images are showing several hot spots of Berlin such as the Berlin and French Cathedral, the Museum of Communications, the Brandenburg Gate, the Deutsche Bahn Tower at Potsdamer Platz and the Humbold University. This is only a fraction of places and locations that you can visit in Berlin and they are well worth a visit.

Other places of interest include the Reichstag, Sanssouci, Museums like the Bodemuseum, Alte Nationalgallerie and the Alte Museum, Checkpoint Charlie, the stadium of the Olympic Games in 1936 and much more.

]]> http://www.ghacks.net/2007/08/29/berlin-impressions/feed/ 4 Today is my birthday http://www.ghacks.net/2007/08/27/today-is-my-birthday/ http://www.ghacks.net/2007/08/27/today-is-my-birthday/#comments Mon, 27 Aug 2007 18:53:43 +0000 Martin http://www.ghacks.net/2007/08/27/today-is-my-birthday/ I just wanted to let everyone know that I was born today, 33 years ago and decided to make a short trip with my family to Berlin to enjoy some wonderful days and nights in Germany’s capital. It was a wonderful time and I had the chance to discover some new great places in Berlin. The Indian restaurant at the Wilhelmsstr near the Brandenburg Gate for instance was fabulous.

If you want a hotel recommendation I suggest you take a look at the Moevenpick Berlin hotel which is located at Anhalter Station just 600 meters from Sony Center and Potsdamer Platz. A great location, big rooms and awesome breakfast.

I will be back tomorrow evening and start updating my site more frequently from then on. Tonight however will be a special night with lots of fun, some dancing, some drinking. Have a nice evening as well, see you tomorrow :)
