Rostock
Germany · Northern Europe & Baltic
Now basking in its regained status as the capital of Germany, Berlin is a dramatic blend of tradition and cutting-edge trendiness. Few cities have seen as many changes in the 20th century as Berlin, which was bombed to pieces during World War II, physically divided for decades, and then joyfully made whole again in 1990. Landmarks such as the Reichstag, Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, and the Berlin Wall Memorial are somber reminders of the city's tumultuous history. Meanwhile, a diverse art scene (over 400 art galleries), world-class cuisine, vibrant nightlife, exciting festivals, and high-profile sporting events and recreation opportunities make Berlin a solid hub of forward-focused culture.

The towers are surely the main attraction of the area and are simply fascinating. Built in a beehive shape to protect against the harsh elements, they use local stone and no mortar. Today, some 1,400 years later, they are still practically intact. There is also a graveyard on the island. Although be prepared for some walking; there are 618 steps winding up to the stone summit, which can get slippery in bad weather. However, like most things that require effort, you will be rewarded once you reach the top. The breathtaking views and photo opportunities are well worth it! Little Skelling is equally as important for birders too; the island is home to almost 30,000 pairs of gannets, the second largest colony of seabirds in the world. Guillemots, Puffins, Manx Shearwaters and Storm Petrels also nest on the island, making up the “Skellig Big Five”.
