October 24 - Day 97


The Hangover: Berlin Styles.
Kidding, no hangover! Another reason to love Berlin. Today we attempted to see the Hitler Exhibition at the German Historical Museum but the queue was too long. Instead we hit up the Berliner Dom, walked around Museumsinsel (museum island), and the city quarter. This shot is of the Berliner Dom, a protestant counterweight to St Peter's Basilica in Rome, commissioned by Emperor Wilhelm II. During the second World War the church was hit by a fire bomb and was severely damaged. After a temporary roof was installed to protect what remained of the interior, reconstruction began in 1975.
