1. Bradenburg Gate

It is the main symbol of the Berlin gate and the symbol of the union of West Berlin and East Berlin. Built in the 18th century as the entrance gate of the city of Brandenburg an der Havel, or better known as the city of Brandenburg. Located in the westernmost city of Berlin, this gate has a long history since it was founded, especially in the political history of this country.

2. Holstentor

In German it means the gate Holsten. A large gate made of red bricks with a Gothic design in the city of Lubeck, Germany. Holstentor is not just a gate, but is actually a fortress.

The fort, which was founded in 1464, initially functioned as a city gate, with two circular towers in the north and south with an arch-shaped gate. Now this building functions as a museum to preserve the city's history and has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987.

 

 

3. Oktoberfest

Are you a beer fan? Come to Munich in October, and you will be satisfied drinking two weeks of beer. Usually this festival is held for sixteen days in an area called Theresienwiese (d'Wiesn). The opening of the festival was marked by the opening of a beer keg by the Mayor of Munich by saying "O'zapft is!" (Bavarian for "Opened!").

During the festival, the beer served is different from the usual beer. The taste is stronger, the color is more concentrated, and served with large glass (1 glass = 1 liter). This annual event was held in a large tent with wooden table chairs like an old bar, and only local beer producers were allowed to serve beer at this event.

As a beer companion, food is also available, and only traditional menus are served here; like sausages, hendl (chicken), käsespätzle (cheese noodles), and sauerkraut. Oktoberfest 2015 is planned to be held on September 19 to October 4 2015 with ticket prices starting from € 60.

Historically, Oktoberfest began with the wedding of Crown Prince Ludwig who later became King Ludwig on October 12, 1810.

The last part is now gone, but carousel and cattle marches were added to enliven the Oktoberfest.
