What was once a divided city which had been razed to the ground to become an emblem to the atrocities of the 20th century, has now become a cosmopolitan metropolis, a symbol of economic and cultural rebirth and the beating heart of the new Europe.
Since 1989, the year the Wall fell, Berlin has become a centre of attraction for artists, stylists, and designers from all over the world.
Whether it is for just a weekend, or longer, for business or pleasure, the Berlin Travel Europe Guide, which has been especially designed for the iPad, has picked the best the city has to offer, from Mitte to Kreuzberg. It is full of new addresses for the trendiest, most fashionable and most traditional places to visit, as well as lots of low budget, and more exclusive, destinations.
The guide also allows you to quickly find information regarding tourist trails, and is full of shopping tips and information on museums, hotels, cafés, bistros and night spots. It is rounded out with a section dedicated to history and culture, a conversation manual, a city map which is divided by area and a map of the local transportation system.
