Checkpoint Charlie





Here you can see what appears to be an authentic 'checkpoint' situated in the centre of Berlin. However, it's just a little bit of fun for the tourists - a photo opportunity. However, it does give you a sense of reality in what was a tragic past. As you will notice, there are signs and symbols of pre-Berlin Wall, for example the ' You are now leaving the American sector' and the portrait of a German soldier.
