Check Point Charlies

Despite this place probably being overrated I really enjoyed my time here, so much that I can’t not give it five stars. The historic significance of this place and all the little details that they’ve added made it a really cool experience. Also make sure to checkout the museum gift shop, best souvenir gift shop I’ve seen in a long time

Definitely one of the top places in Berlin to visit. It is basically an outdoor monument. You can visit anytime of day or night. There are several museums in the area if you want to learn more. We had some great photo opportunities. And it was interesting to learn about this site. Consider visiting before or after other things open if you have no interest in the museums.

This has to be one of my favorite historical places in Berlin for me. The reason is that it conveys the message of that cold war era Berlin where we had divisions and how things have improved for good now. It gives me hope that if people get united then we can definitely break all the borders and u it together as a single nation comprising of different race, ethnicities and religions. This is a must visit especially during the day so you can capture better pictures

The hottest point where East and West Berlin come into contact with each other. Here you can learn symbolic photographs of the soldiers of the East and West side, the items from that day, the stories at the checkpoint. You can learn the history of the region visually and in writing by going to the Checkpoint Charlie Museum, which is just 50 meters away.

I enjoyed my time here, as we passed by this landmark during my walking tour. I would recommend to go on a tour or at least have some knowledge/context on what took place and why this landmark is important. I think without the context, it would be less enjoyable. However, there is a mini gallery/timeline outside across the street with the history of the Berlin Wall to visit if you need more information as well as a paid museum.

Also known as "Checkpoint C", this was the best-known crossing point of the Berlin Wall and a symbol of the Cold War. There are extremely popular places, not thanks of how they look, but how they make you feel. Many places in Berlin may not be spectacular in terms of offering, but make you feel in a special way because of their historical touch. Checkpint C is that kind of place... and it also makes you recall the famous movie.

I was with a guided tour of the city and got to see the American sector of Berlin, and what I think is super fascinating is there are these little cobblestone lines across the area and that are actually the lines of where the Berlin wall was what it was standing. It’s super cool because you could just jump over it back-and-forth and be on the east side then the west side the east side then the west side of Berlin

The details, the war, the significance, the east side and the west side all comes becomes a movie scene when you stand in front of this road.. absolutely must visit place and we were lucky to witness a show performed by some veterans..

It is incredible to be able to check a piece of history still there in the middle of Berlin. Important place to visit while in the city. There is very good souvenir store just in front of Checkpoint Charlie as well.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo wait
