Introduction

A segment of the famous Berlin Wall, measuring 1.3 kilometers in length, is preserved in Berlin and is one of the most visited sections of the three remaining segments. Following the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990 and the reunification of Germany, this section became a canvas for contemporary artists, with many artworks depicting political themes. After a renovation in 2009, the wall became even more beautiful and vibrant. During the summer, the area is transformed with beach chairs on the lawn, allowing visitors to enjoy the beach and sunlight. The once heavily guarded wall is now a cherished symbol of hope and fond memories.
