I am sorry to ask this question but I really don't know. Was the Berlin wall used as an symbol only or was the nation really divided into two like North Korea and South Korea. What I am asking is was it possible to travel from west Germany to east Germany or the other way around, and if yes, did you need a passport or just an ID And were there two different governments representing each side and was the east and west Germany considered two different nations or just one nation but two governments

@okyat The Wall was a barrier that completely cut off West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin. The Wall served to prevent the massive emigration that marked Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period. People could not go from one part to the other. East Germany was a socialist state in the Soviet zone of occupied Germany. West Berlin consisted of the American, British, and French occupation sectors. the wall was real, not a symbol

i have only visited Paris (and that was a while ago). I would like to visit Berlin someday :) (i'm from US) May i ask a question...was the Bradenburg gate in the

former east or west part of the city?

[ivanalazzarini]

@tmmy773 the gate was incorporated into the Berlin wall during the years of war, so it was part of the wall. It was in West Berlin from the west and east of the east side.

Berlin is certainly a lovely city, I hope to visit someday. JAJAJAJAJA, I felt curious about these small cars, should be fun to use them on the street and not imagine the ride on the river "Spree", it must be great. Another thing that strikes me about this city is its architecture, has very beautiful buildings!

[ivanalazzarini]

@MrJuillet91 for me Berlin is the New York of Europe! You can have a great tour with a tipical Trabant car, but the best way to visit the city is the bike ;-) The architecture is fantastic, you can see an example in the "Berlin city 2011 - Travel video - part 2" on my Youtube page. Finally, if you wont some more relax, the river Spree is perfect and also the "city beaches" where you can have a beer and sit on a deck. Bon voyage!

[sialuab]
