Annotation:

From Brandenburg Gate across Schinkel's universe and the Bauhaus up to Foster, Libeskind, Perrault and Pei- Berlin's career from elector's residence to German capital has always been attended by political upheavals but also by brillant master builders who left their unmistakable imprint on the face of the metropolis. Its past is preserved in its architecture as well as 150 museums many of whish rank among those central to international art. Berlin has always been an exciting city; and today, as it reconstituting itself as the new, old capital, it is so more than ever.
