Headlining today’s post … Schon wieder overdressed zur cocktailparty?
Berlin-Mitte, the district north of Kreuzberg, languished during the Cold War era, but today it is the thriving heart of the reunified capital city. Here you find the historic Reichstag building and its majestic dome, the famed Brandenburg Gate, the magnificent Unter den Linden avenue, the TV Tower, and much more.
In addition to the impressive tourist sights, Berlin-Mitte provides intriguing artwork by a host of street artists from around the globe. For example, Charm City Streets found work by D7606 (United Kingdom), Guache (Colombia), JAZ (Argentina), Jimmy C (London), Don John (Denmark), Mimi the Clown (France), Nafir (Iran), and Vhils (Portugal) in Berlin-Mitte.
