In recent years I had twice made a planning what to visit in Berlin, but Corona delayed these plans. The 2nd time it could have been done, but the restrictions in Germany were less relaxed than ours and not always clear. Since my wife had no interest in the things I wanted to see in Berlin, I went with my son, who is also a keen photographer and collector of (photo) books. Since he'd been to Berlin before, I also had a guide to show me the ropes of the excellent U-bahn system.
But my son had commitments and so the trip was cut short to four nights and choices were made in what to visit.

One of the targets in recent years for any city trip is Urban Art, murals.

This was near U-bahn Gleis Dreieck, visible from the train to Potsdamer Platz (travelling from Bülowstrasse).

This was on the left of the S-bahn, from Ostbahnhof (shortly after, before Vattenfall factory) and Alexanderplatz.

 

 

ALEXANDERPLATZ

Alexanderplatz is largely a building site.
This fence was nice, Haus des Lehers is there too. Not much else that I could see. Just another shopping area.
