A visit to the Berlin Philharmonic Hall is worth a trip in any case. After the old building was destroyed in World War II, the new Philharmonie was built in 1963 according to the plans of Hans Scharoun. Famous conductors such as Herbert von Karajan, Claudio Abbado and Sir Simon Rattle have helped the Berlin Philharmonie achieve worldwide fame in recent decades. The outstanding acoustics were calculated in detail at the planning stage and are still the standard by which other philharmonic halls are measured today. A component of the Berlin Philharmonic Hall is also a built-in organ, which comprises 91 stops. Due to the so-called "Weinberg architecture", one has a very good view of the stage almost everywhere.

Anyone visiting Berlin should plan a visit to the Department Store of the West (KaDeWe for short). The department store founded by Adolf Jandorf on March 27, 1907 is the best-known department store in Germany. With over 60,000 square meters of retail space, it is also one of the largest shopping centers in Europe.

With its size of almost 368 meters, the Berlin TV Tower is the tallest building in the Federal Republic of Germany and the fourth tallest TV tower on the European continent. It was opened in the late 1960s and has been one of the city's landmarks ever since. In the TV tower there is a viewing platform and a panoramic restaurant. Today, the TV tower is a listed building.

The City Palace in Berlin was used as the residence of many electors, kings and emperors from 1443 onwards. The castle was built in the Baroque style and also has Classical influences. Since the beginning of the 20th century it has also been used by various authorities and for scientific institutions. The 70 meter high dome is a landmark of the city and serves as a popular photo motif.
