Ich Bin ein Berliner!

[chadknowslaw]

Are there any members on this board that are familiar with Berlin? I have a few days here and would appreciate suggestions on places to see outside of the regular tourist areas. I just visited the Reichtag and Brandenburg Gate today. The concierge at my hotel told me it was a long way to walk and I should take a cab there--so I walked, and that made all the difference. Definitely worth the extra physical effort.
