    Pariser Platz, the square at Brandenburg Gate marks the end of our trip down Unter den Linden. Here you will not only find Brandenburg Gate but also the fancy Hotel Adlon, the French embassy, several banks and Frank O. Gehry's DG Bank building. At the moment you also find a giant football here - it was opened 1000 days before the 2006 world cup ---- one day after I had been there ;-)

    This avenue is beautiful, but I guess only since being rebuilt after reunification. It joins where the King's palace stood straight down to the the Brandenburg gate to his hunting grounds.
    Once upon a time, all the Linden trees were uprooted to be replaced by the SS flags, at which all Berliner protested....

    My friend and I almost collapsed when we saw the wonderfully designed window of Aeroflot at Unter den Linden. We walked along here on 11 September 2003 and there was a model plane in the window which was attached by strings..... only problem was that it looked like it was just crashing down, one string must have given up work ;)

    Anyway, I like the Aeroflot building somehow as it is the ugly duckling under all the swans of Unter den Linden.

    This grand avenue lined with four rows of lime trees runs from the Brandenburg Gate to Museum Island, and has a large amount of historic buildings, embassies, up market shops, and cafes. Along this street, you will find the Staatsoper, the Russian Embassy, Humboldt University, and a host of museums and monuments.-

    Especially in winter time, the street Unter den Linden is beautiful! All the trees are decorated with millions off little lights. At the end of Unter den Linden you can see the Brandenburger Tor which is beautifully illuminated too.

    Unter den Linden: Humboldt University

  • Humboldt University - Berlin
    Humboldt University
    by sarahandgareth
    The Humboldt University, nearly fifteen years after the fall of the Wall, is rapidly returning to its former academic glory after stagnating during the GDR period. In the past, the Humboldt saw figures as diverse as Marx and Engels (as students) and Einstein, and the Brothers Grimm (as staff members) pass through its halls.

    You can wander into the Humboldt’s main hall and even go upstairs to the smaller libraries without anyone asking you where you are going. It’s quite a maze, and high in the building, under the roof, you’ll get lost in an amazing array of old books in many languages: it’s a collector’s dream!

    Along Unter den Linden there are several buildings that belong to the University! Maybe the most famous one is Humboldt Universität, where I even managed to attend an International Students Welcome Party. ;) Most of the time [especially during the weekend] there's a Flohmarkt, where you can find all kinds of books, dictionaries, comics aso. Hollie & me found some interesting covers like 'The Woman of Today', 'The Three Degrees of Erotic', 'Happy Pocketbook' aso [see photos]. ;)

    I love the architecture of the Russian embassy with its clear structure and its statues along the tower. Very exotic I think! It was build in the 1950s when the USSR of course needed a representative building in East Berlin.

    Neue Wache
    by sabsi
    Neue Wache is another one of Schinkel's masterpieces. It was built 1818 as a guard for the castle. In the 1930s it was turned into a memorial for the people who had died in WWI. After WWII, however, it was turned into a memorial for the victims of fascism and militarism. Now that the GDR is gone it was turned into something else again - now it is the German central memorial for the victims of war and dictatorship. What a history!

    Unter den Linden: Berlin's magnificent boulevard

  • Unter den Linden - Berlin
    by hundertmorgen
    Berlin's magnificent boulevard, the centrepiece of the Old Berlin, leads from Pariser Platz at the »Brandenburg Gate to the Schlossbrücke bridge. Unter den Linden was originally a bridle path: from 1573, it led from Berlin Palace to Lietzow, later Charlottenburg, and then on to Spandau. From 1701, the Linden became more and more built up, mirroring the rising splendor of the monarchy and the new architectural style.
