The Brandenberg Gate

The Brandenburg Gate is the most recognized tourist attraction in Berlin. After WW11 when Berlin was split into four sections, American, British, French and Russian, it became the "gate" to the Russian sector. Ronald Regan famously stood here and demanded Gorbachev tear down the wall. Close by to here, are the Jewish Memorial, and the Fuhrerbunker where Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide. That site is now a gravel carpark.

It was on my Bucket List to walk through this Gate. It is the last remaing gate, of the 14, that were the entrances to the walled city of Berlin. I passed through that gate on the 30th of April 2019.
