Travel To Go Highlights the Best of Berlin for 2016 Vacations

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ As one of the most famous cities of the 1900s, Berlin was once split between the United States, Great Britain, France, and Russia. Reunited after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the city still has old charm combined with new architecture.

Brandenburger Tor Though once the pride of Prussian Berlin, the Brandenburger Tor was left desolate when the Wall was built. Travel To Go knows that today it is the location for the Unification Day parties as well as New Year's Eve parties. Built by Carl Langhans and completed in 1791, troops have ceremonially paraded through the gates after successful campaigns, most recently in 1945 as the Red Army took Berlin. The gate faces Pariser Platz and on the other side Berlin's Academy of Arts.

Checkpoint Charlie Museum Possibly the most visited museum in Berlin, this museum was started by human rights activist Dr. Rainer Hildenbrant in October of 1962. The presentations feature the many ways in which people attempted escape from East Berlin and Germany during the separation. Its second undertaking is to ensure that the way of life during that time is not forgotten. The museum is located at the famous crossing point for which it is named.

Berlin Zoo One of the most popular destinations in Berlin is the Zoo. Located in the Hardenbergplatz the zoo is open every day, starting at 9am, and closes at either 5pm or 6:30pm, depending on the season. Throughout the day, various animal feedings are scheduled, giving visitors a chance to see these animals in action. Consider watching the monkeys, king penguins, or hippos be fed. Nearby is the Aquarium Berlin as well as Tierpark and both make excellent additional trips.

Cruise Tour One fantastic way to see the main sights of Berlin, from a new angle, is the City Tour's 1-hour cruise of Berlin. If done in conjunction with the City Bus Tour, this is a perfect way to scope out all the signs at the beginning of the trip, and decide what needs more time. This cruise features an audio history, in both English and German while travelling on the Spree River. Travel To Go notes that Attractions include Berliner Dom, Reichstag, the Hauptbahnhof and many more.

Berlin is rich in history and quickly modernizing. It is a wonderful place to see the old and the new come together, eat fantastic German food, and try authentic German beer. Add Berlin to your vacation plans for 2016. For more tips, deals, assistance with booking, and all vacation needs, contact Travel to Go athttp://www.traveltogo.com
