The old museum on the museum island
A 3000 year old Nofretete - found 1912 in Amun, Egypt

Mom and I eating sushi at PanAsia - yum!

The Museum Island


The Berlin and German Flag

The new state museum - designed by David Chipperfield, with works from the collector Heiner Bastian

These benches seemed peaceful, along the river (Spree)

The Brandenburger Tor - the symbol of Berlin


The SONY Center - this looks like Mt. Fuji when you look at it from a distance - it also changes colors at night -
Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedaechtniskirche - 63 m ruin from world war II, the hexagonal tower was built later (1960s) - it serves as reminder against the terror and destruction of war

KaDeWe (Berlin's GIGANTIC shopping mall) in all it's kitschy Christmas glory

In Berlin, it's all about the inner courtyards
