tourist

here a some (very few) of the sites.

potsdamer platz, recently redeveloped - it used to be in the 'death zone' between the walls.

the luftwaffe building, one of the three (i think) remaining nazi buildings. it was used by the commies as the ministry of ministries (seriously) and the east german uprising of 1953 happened here.

the wall.

checkpoint charlie.

we saw other things too but i felt kind of lame photographing them and/or couldn't get a good enough shot. you all know what the brandenburg gate looks like though, right?
