The Brandenburg Gate is an iconic monument in Berlin! A strong historical symbol, both of the division and reunification of Berlin. Built on the line of the wall during its construction in 1961, the Brandenburg Gate remained for over 25 years in the heart of no man's land, that is to say, the area between the official wall and the inner wall, and was therefore neither in the East nor in the West. Consequently, it was trapped between two walls for over 30 years. In 1989, when the wall fell, it became the symbol of the reunification of Berlin.

When I went there, there were a lot of people, but they were mostly Berliners – German was ringing out everywhere!

Right next to the palace, you won't be able to miss the contemporary building that seems to rest on the water: the Paul-Lobe Haus, which houses the offices of the Bundestag (the German parliament).

The Reichstag building houses the German parliament, the Bundestag. It is possible to visit it, particularly its dome with very modern architecture that overlooks the building.
