The cupola of the Bundestag (Germany's Parliament) is reflected on a shop's glass showcase. We stopped here to pause and catch our breath after walking all the way from our hotel in Lindenstrasse, some 3 kilometers away.

The spanking brand-new Hauptbahnhoff cost one billion dollars to build. Most of the money must have gone to this gigantic glass roof and facade that mirrors some of the city's famous landmarks.

The somber atmosphere of the newly-opened Jewish Holocaust Memorial contrasted sharply with the gaiety a block away where a street party celebrating the start of the World Cup '06 was going on. Berlin is a city of contrasts rich in symbolism; both historically and architecturally.

The Kurfurstendamm, the wide boulevard lined with elegant shopping areas downtown has a preserved bombed-out relic of a church. One of the most famous buildings in Berlin, the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church stands as a reminder of the terrible destruction wrought on the city during the Second World War.

Pretty funny sculptures standing in Potsdammer Platz. What's inside the hollow necks? Well, a video screen showing images of the city.
