Berlin interesting perspective of a nice city, wroth visiting

I’m writing here to share how amazed I am of Berlin and about the exciting time I got In Germany’s capital a week ago. I have planned to make a trip to this interesting cental European country for a long time, so I took the first opportunity of a free time I had and decided to view Berlin. I have a couple of mates there and after a bit of arrangements and not so pleasant flight, we got to our apartment in Berlin for the next week. I wasn’t pretty sure wherther I had found the right place, I solely remember that I greatly desired a bathroom and a bed, that’s all; and even got some doubts about this vacation.Brandenburg Gate in Berlin

Still, in the morning everything looked better and I was really eager to have a look around the capital of Germany. The weather was perfect for the long strolling I have planned and in reality , I was really surprised to discover that there was a metro station very close to my Berlin Accommodation and I reached the city center within 10 minutes. Because it was Monday, my friends were working all day and I had to roam by myself. That day I planned to visit the Tower, of course, the famous square Alexanderplatz and the Brandenburg Gate. I was definitely fascinated of the view, of the contrast between the medieval and the modern buildings, which I thought would be bland, but it was indeed really refined and not irritating. I decided to keep the other wonderful sites for the rest of my stay when several of my friends will demonstrate and tell me more about the real spirit of this place. I have heard fantastic things about the clubs and the fun aspect of Berlin and just had to try it.
