Having re-established itself as one of Europe’s primary cities and the reunified Germany’s capital, Berlin is a city brimming with optimism. Located in the north-east of Germany and with a population of 3.5million, one third of Berlin is currently covered by woodland, parks and waterways. Despite efforts to become a city of the future, Berlin has also made every effort to preserve its rich history. Having earned its fame through being the home of the Berlin Wall and therefore the focus of the bitter cold war between East and West, Berlin is now home to the largest construction project Europe has seen since the Second World War. All this makes the city one of the most exciting and varied in Europe.
