Just yards away from freedom, the people of Berlin used their ingrained sense of survival for almost 30 years until the wall came down in 1989. Hen weekenders will enjoy a city, once without any freedom of expression, now hosting the largest gay celebration in Europe. Since the east and west officially reunited, the number of museums have exploded to approximately 150.
