Potsdamer Platz: the rebuilt centre and the modern museums
The square the Wall erased and the Nineties rebuilt, then Scharoun's gold hall and Mies's glass box.

Brandenburg Gate to the zoo through the wood, with 285 steps up the Siegessäule in the middle.

Other walks close to Tiergarten.
Sorted by distance from the start of potsdamer platz: the rebuilt centre and the modern museums. Good for stitching together a longer day.
Unter den Linden: the gate and the grand boulevard
From the Brandenburg Gate down the linden avenue, past the stelae, the burned library, and Kollwitz's Pietà.
Checkpoint Charlie: the divided city's scar
The Cold War crossing, the longest stretch of inner-city Wall, and the ground where the Gestapo ran the Reich.
The Regierungsviertel: the river of government
Foster's glass dome, the federal buildings straddling the Spree, and the Brandenburg Gate to close.
Mitte: Museum Island and the Spree
Five great museums on a river island, a cathedral, a rebuilt palace, and the tower that ends every Berlin walk.
