About Berlin
Berlin's history is pretty complicated. Following a tumultuous past marked by violent wars and concentration camps, Berlin has put in a lot of effort during recent years into making itself over as a cool, modern and cosmopolitan city. Life in Berlin is indeed quite different from just a few decades ago, as today we see an innovative city that has undergone a major facelift.
Berlin is known for its alternative lifestyles and, for this very reason, the city serves as a hub of creativity for Europe's young generation. In fact, each year, thousands of young people set foot in Berlin to participate in some of the city's myriad cultural and artistic events designed with them in mind!
