We continued west down Unter den Linden to Pariser Platz and the Brandenburg Gate, beyond which begins the large Tiergarten park, once the royal hunting grounds. Located on Pariser Platz near the gate is the the Adlon Hotel (where Michael Jackson dangled his baby off the balcony), the US Embassy and the Kennedys Museum. The Berliners were evidently quite taken with JFK when he visited in 1963.







From the Brandenburg gate you get a view of the Reichstag dome. 



And here is a photo of the Bundestag and the memorial to the 96 politicians who opposed Hitler.
