Berlin is the capital of Germany. It is famous for its beautiful scenes and complex history.
In the August of 1961, Berlin was divided into two parts: East Berlin and West Berlin. The Communist Government of the east built a 100-mile long Berlin Wall. On October 3,1990, the east and the west unified again. The Berlin Wall was pushed over. A few sections of the wall were left to remind the 28-year division of the city.
Another famous building is the Victory Column. It is 61.5m high and on the top of the column, the victory goddess stands there.
There are many museums in Berlin. Seven of them are on Museum Island and a few are in the city. The Checkpoint Charlie Museum is one of the most visited museums. There are a lot of pictures on display to show the history and real life of people before the Wall was pushed over. There is a Jewish Museum in Berlin.
The parks, the Brandenburger Door, Gendermen Yard and the streets are very beautiful. In the zoo, we even can visit several giant pandas that come from China!
