The East Side Gallery is the world's largest outdoor gallery located in Berlin, and it is a place where peace and freedom are painted on the remnants of the old Berlin Wall. It is a place where symbolic paintings are drawn and efforts are made to change heartbreaking history into hope.
As you walk through the 1.3km-long outdoor gallery and look at each piece, you can get a glimpse of their earnest desire for unification and freedom, and in particular, the 'Brother's Kiss', which depicts the meeting of brothers who were divided between East and West Germany and wanted to meet so badly, is very famous.
It would be good to take a picture in front of the Brother's Kiss, which can be called the symbol of the East Side Gallery, but since there are so many people, you should take it quickly and leave so that you can leisurely look around.
Also, the 'Mercedes-Benz Arena' is located nearby, so it would be good to visit it together, and there is also a Five Guys Burger right in front of the stadium, so you can enjoy a delicious meal after viewing the gallery and the stadium.
If you go to Berlin, a place that remembers the pain of division as a symbol of peace and freedom, I recommend you visit the East Side Gallery :)
