Potsdamer Platz, rebuilt after WW II and now brimming with cutting-edge architecture. Venue of Berlin International Film Festival and a Mecca for shoppers. Come and see the cutting-edge architecture of Potsdamer Platz, also if you aren't visiting the Berlin International Film Festival. It is hard to believe that twenty years ago this square was desolate wasteland.
