Berlin Environmental Zone
In an effort to reduce pollution, the Berlin city council have introduced an environmental zone which restricts the amount of traffic permitted within the central area. The zone is defined as the area within the suburban rail ring. Only vehicles which meet strict emission standards are permitted to travel within this area.

All drivers wishing to travel within this area (including foreign cars) must purchase and display a colour coded badge or incur a fine of €40.

Seemingly always at the forefront of European politics, Berlin has endured a tumultuous past. Wars in particular exacted a heavy toll, and it's estimated that World War II destroyed 80% of the city. And even though the Wall has come down, there's still a palpable discrepancy between the formerly run-down, decaying East and the more upscale, affluent West. Be that as it may, Berlin is, on the whole, a vibrant, culturally inviting city offering a wealth of attractions. It's also visually appealing with ample greenery and scenic lakes. First-time visitors should stop by the famous Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie Museum, Frederick the Great's Sanssouci Palace, and the impressive Dahlem Museum. Berlin is also famous for its raucous nightlife. West Berlin ­ and increasingly East Berlin ­ is replete with trendy cafés and hopping nightclubs.

The Olympia Stadion is one of the few Nazi-built structures still intact and in use. Built for the 1936 Olympic games, the stadium was intended to showcase Hitler's "master race" athletes. But African-American Jesse Owens dashed those plans by winning four gold medals. Today, Berlin even has a street named after Owens.
