Berlin blends history and modernity. Three days are enough to see the essentials.

Day 1 — historic heart

Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag dome, the Holocaust Memorial and Unter den Linden.

Day 2 — museums and the Spree

Museum Island (Pergamon, Neues Museum), Berlin Cathedral and a boat trip on the Spree.

Day 3 — the Wall and districts

East Side Gallery, Checkpoint Charlie and Kreuzberg with its street food.
