Travel to Berlin Airport

The Berlin Airport or Brandenburg Airport is a new airport that will replace the Tegel and Schonefeld airports. The new airport, when it is opened, will have new railway routes linking the airport with the local and long distance transport network. Travellers will be able to get from the airport to central Berlin in less than 30 minutes. There will also be bus services that connect the airport with the city.

Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, Berlin has become a glamorous city with world class museums and art galleries along with grand opera, gourmet restaurants, ethnic street snacks and guerrilla clubs. Whether it is fashion, design, art or music, Berlin leads the field in Germany. The influx of creative people to Berlin has created a scene that is reminiscent of 1980s' New York. The Reichstag has been the home of Germany's parliament since 1999. The building was designed by Norman Foster and whilst there may be queues for the trip to the glass dome it is worth the wait for the fantastic panoramas that it offers. The Brandenburg Gate is the only surviving city gate and a symbol of the division of the city during the Cold War. Another reminder of the city's past as a divided city is the East Side Gallery, the longest and the most interesting stretch of the Berlin Wall that still remains standing.
