10 Hidden Tourist Gems In Germany You Didn’t Know About

7. The Berlin Wall

Germany has many scenic bike tours, but none more unusual or interesting than a guided tour of the Berlin Wall and other Cold War landmarks in former East Berlin. You’ll see and learn about the East Side Gallery, a 1.3-kilometer (0.8-mile) stretch of the Wall that’s still standing. Famous for its graffiti as well as its checkpoints, the Gallery is a blend of sobering watchtowers, modern street art and communist propaganda still lining various buildings. Some bike tours include a stop at the impressive Soviet Memorial in Treptower Park.

    Great post on Germany. We spent three weeks exploring the divergent sides of Germany last summer. We snapped over 5k in photos! It’s truly beautiful.
