Berlin Germany Office

"Hallo.  Welcome to Berlin," declared the flight attendant upon landing and resting at the gate.

The passengers coming to Berlin from the U.S. had different reasons.  Some were in the United States on business and relieved to be home and greeted in their native language - "hallo" is German for "hello" in English.  A select few were in Berlin as business transfers and curious to explore their new home and culture.  A stray passenger was a college student studying abroad.  The remaining others were in Berlin as tourists.  A few of these others were exploring their heritage.  Translation books were on hand.

"Enjoy your stay," said the flight attendant to ever passenger as they exited the plane.  Of course, there was no way for her to know the reasons behind each passenger.

Let's focus on the tourists.

The first site to see is the Berlin Wall as cemented into American and German history.  All other German attractions are named in German, so make great use out of the translation books.

Stay awhile.

Shop local.  Look local.
