Berlin is the capital city and one of sixteen states of Germany. With a population of 3.4 million within its city limits, Berlin is the country’s largest city. After World War II, the city was divided; East Berlin became the capital of East Germany while West Berlin became a Western enclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall from 1961-1989.
Following German reunification in 1990, the city regained its status as the capital of all Germany and has seen an explosion of construction with dramatic new archtiecture in a phoenix-like rebirth of devastated cityscapes.

Since the fall of the wall Berlin has filled with gay life and is one of the major gay centers in Europe.
There are over 250 LGBT venues in Berlin, including the famous store Bruno and the excellent Gay Museum, so these are only a fraction of countless random images of the scene there.
