The prove to us and them is not just a popular shopping destination its also a fashionable place to take a stroll the idea is to see and be seen. Modern highrises bump up against elegant Nineteenth Century buildings and theres one duty after the next but its not all luxury here there are also mainstream chain stores independent stores and snack bars. I want to pack as much as possible into my trip along the course first my plan for today shopping culture and sightseeing we also head to this new and will be taken some cold very highlights too so lets go.

Seo berlin is an exhibition space devoted to contemporary photography it showcases works by Famous Artists and talented new commas. And there is the museum for photography which features works ranging from the Nineteenth Century to the present. An exhibition on contemporary chinese photography and the cultural revolution is running till january. Down the road is the shell buena one of the citys most innovative the it is the building used to house a cinema but Live Performances what attracts the crowds today. The laws i know one of the shelbourne a stars has also made an International Name for himself as a film actor. Talking a film there are plenty of cinemas in this area to the top of lost is perhaps the most famous and its looking very plush after being completely refurbished a few years ago. If you come here during the boleyn Film Festival in february theres a good chance you might go in star zero two. There are also museums on the coup i was curious about the story of berlin twenty three v. M. Grooms guide you through eight hundred years of history its not so much about facts and figures but about getting an impression of life through the ages. This museum place to all the senses you can not only see berlins history but you can hear it. Touch it and even smell it. I love the interactive concept walking through the halls you can connect to the history on an emotional level. One of the rooms called the myth of modernity is devoted to the roaring twentys. A decade that helped shape what the code is today. Saying as don says actors and writers that was the place to be in the one nine hundred twenty is underneath that is. This was where it was all happening. The g. M. And here ladies and gentlemen were on one of the liveliest and most glamorous boulevards in the city the core first and dumb of them could feel stood on. The board of and got its name from the core first the princess of brandenburg. During the Second World War large parts of the boulevard were destroyed reconstruction would take years. During the cold war in the divided city u. S. Troops paraded down the avenue. And in one thousand nine hundred sixty three crowds turned out to see u. S. President john f. Kennedy. Two years later it was Queen Elizabeth a seconds time plenty just the people on the qudama the neighboring streets in the guise of an immoral church could fill the Olympic Stadium yesterday. During the cold war era the first was the center of west by land. But after the fall of the berlin wall it lost some of its drama the former east became fashionable while the ku dam seemed stuck in the past. But a lot has been done to banish the image in recent years many New Buildings have gone up others have been renovated. And this has been a huge transformation after the fall of the wall there were only cheap shops here but now its much nicer to. Invest more people are coming to the west to see whats going on. Theres something new every day no even talk of just noise but like the annual christopher street day parade for instance all big celebrations after football matches. Once again the one of the busiest time best streets in the city. My next stop is the zoo located just off the cool. Its home to some twenty thousand animals and oasis right in the middle of berlin. To new panda bears are the current favorite attractions a rifle in the summer the public loves it. And then there are the tap ears im going to have zookeeper you can feed them. But what do they like to eat you know that the south American Flat top is not always the top is in the mountains and the top is eat plants. Like this if you know yes raisins carrots apples cooked carrots what other names. When i was the boy were not ones maya. And i had to. Live very friendly they use their tongues to take the food but i also had all teeth so you have to be a bit careful. Should i put my hand out flat. Just take the food like this and pop it into them out like putting a letter in a post box. So would i make a good zookeeper. If you like you can stroke him behind. On his end with him or look. Like a brush you know. Its the First Time Ever that ive stroked and fed it tapir how cool. Its time for all of your a video this week was sent in by you want to own he went on a camping trip to mongolia with his girlfriend and they saw no and exotic animals just like i am doing right now but in the wild. Now were back on the coup in berlin at the chi is a villa Memorial Church a local landmark. It was damaged in a bombing raid during the Second World War the ruined remains today as a reminder of the destruction of war a modern church was built next to the damaged original in the early one nine hundred sixty. It has a separate belt. And and octagonal. Linares have nicknamed the complex the hollow tube and the lipstick and powder box. The interior is cast in a blue light its designed to recall the old gothic cathedrals with their large stained glass windows. I have some questions for Catalina Stiefel the pastor here. Forty for this century it is a memorial get a reminder of the impact of war why is this building so symbolic to five enough that there are hardly any traces of the wall left in the city almost everything is being renovated or rebuilt its rare to see the destruction of war like this bomb tower in such a prominent place. Up to. Some you call the q fifty to the church as very central and its very well know them how do you deal with the responsibility as a pastor you have problems with. Them. We try to do justice to as many people as possible. Thanks to a visit as paul we know we get one point three million visitors each year and more than ninety percent to tourists so were different of course from typical local churches and we do Community Work like any other church but we also do work for the city and then im going to try to do justice to this special place by having four to five tours a day for example. A few of us from here will be here and its a method of an attack took place here in december of two thousand and sixteen twelve people were killed while visiting the Christmas Market here what were those days like for you know most of the as. And that you know those were exceptional circumstances there was a lot of solidarity during those days that was what was positive about it.
