MasonBerlin is the capital of Germany and a very diverse city, combining the heritage of the most important historical events, modern cultural trends and free morals.
Alexanderplatz
One of the most iconic places in Berlin. Once a market square, during the war it was destroyed, and after that it was restored and surrounded by modern buildings.
The square is crowned with a large World Clock – a rotating sculpture that displays the time in different parts of the world.
Not far from Alexanderplatz stands the 368-meter Berlin TV Tower. You can climb it to view the city from above. The ticket will cost € 16.50.
Church of St. Mary and Church of St. Nicholas
Behind the Berlin TV Tower is the cozy St. Mary’s Church. It is worth looking into it to examine the interior filled with light.
Not far from the Church of St. Mary, one of the symbols of the city was erected – the Church of St. Nicholas. Outside, the building is impressive in architecture. Currently, the church functions as a museum. On Fridays, from 17:00 to 17:30, there are concerts of enchanting music with the participation of the organ.
Museum Island

The main attraction of the museum island is the symbol of the city – Berlin Cathedral. Enter it to view the majestic dome and architecture.
Reichstag
The Reichstag is the building that currently houses the German national parliament. The building itself is interesting with its large glass dome, which offers panoramic views of Berlin.
The Reichstag and its dome are free to visit, however all visitors must register in advance. The most convenient way to do this is online in advance.
Brandenburg Gate and the Great Tiergarten
The Brandenburg Gate is located on Paris Square – one of the main attractions of Berlin. From the square, the gate leads to the largest park in the city – the Great Tiergarten. In addition to a huge green area with ponds and alleys, which in some places resemble a forest, there is a Goethe monument, a memorial to the fallen Soviet soldiers and a Victory Column.
If you turn down narrow paths, in the park you can find flower gardens with roses, Rhododendronhain, the Beethoven monument and the Berlin Zoo.
