Berlin in Germany - the Reichstag/ Bundestag (German government building)
Here are the pictures of the Reichstag... the Reichstag has a long and interesting history, and most visitors to Germany already know of German history as well as the famous burning of the Reichstag. Come and tour the Reichstag with me, both outside and inside of the famous building. You should visit it when you are in Berlin, and a simple appointment made in advance will let you have privileged and educational access, complete with a guide.
This is the beautiful view of the domed roof (the famous glass and metal dome) from the roof. Many visitors visit the Reichstag just to see this, really!
This is the view of the rooftop of the Reichstag itself, where you can see all the tourists and the travellers/ visitors/ students/ and curious people like myself walking all around the roof and having a look around Berlin from a very nice and high vantage point.
The view from the roof - panoramic view isn't it?
This is the inside of the building, and you can see the eagle that is the emblem and symbol of Germany. Visit the Reichstag to see all these beautiful symbols and representations of Germany's history and culture. I remember that Austria's own eagle has two heads... one facing east and one facing west. If I am not wrong.
To prevent any abuse of power, after Hitler, the public is allowed to see the proceedings from above. The tour guide reminded us visitors of Germany's dark history, and
any time anyone in government or in a position of power wants to know who really and actually is in power in Germany, they have to look up, and they see the people peering down on them. The German public runs the place.
Powerful and inspiring lines, and I loved the concept a lot. :) Even though I am just a visitor.
OK, that's it for my Germany posts and my Germany section during my Europe trip. Cheers!
TOUR AND SEE THE WORLD WITH ME! :)
