  • The Brandenburg Gate -- only the royal family could go through the main section in the past -- we all felt royal as we passed through this time.
  • The gate was built 1788-1791. This famous Victory Quadriga by Gottfried Schadow was added in 1793.
  • A long shot of the gate. Imagine that it was integrated into the Berlin Wall for nearly 30 years.
  • Beautiful spring flowers rim the Pariser Platz, adjacent to the Brandenburg Gate.
  • A portion of the Berlin Wall that remains today as a stark reminder.
  • The perimeter of the wall is marked in several different ways throughout the city.

    Linda Post Bushkovsky and Staff: Thanks a zillion for the CD pictures of the tour. I personally took 410 pictures and I still saw something new.!! Amazing. Your letter said people were still responding to this Blog and yet the latest comment I find is May 15th. Is there another way to pull up more recent comments?
