Ok dude, now the interesting part for the Jewish Museum. We got there after an hour later because it was F...ing far from our hostel. It was really funny that when we got there we argued about the Museum location for there are multiples museum directions and most of them are useless, unless you asked the local people. The VERY FIRST IMPRESSION when we got there...it does give you a "WOW" factor. The interplay of the slashes and lines of windows create an interesting collage on the silver facade. This evoke a curiosity of the spaces within. Although the building might be totally out of the world, the proportion and type shape of the building that Daniel played seems making it alright around the neighbourhood. The only entrance to the new museum was to go through the old, through a dim lit stairway.

fragmented columns that continues up to the roofs and extend to become the beams.

The first space that we encountered from that was the infamous interior part where it was the meeting of the 3 axis lines that Daniel constantly mentioned about. The wall, slanted floor and the lit line on the ceiling that compose the entire space doesn't felt as what Daniels envisioned (That's what I felt)
Garden of Exile
but among the 3 main famous spaces, I would said I love the Holocaust the most. The entire contain void itself was so dark and just lit by a line of natural light. The entire atmosphere was was solemn and it the impact of the sadness speaks.
Later we go through the Void, where the metal faces was, I would love this space to be dimmer... but the stepping sound on the metal and the echo from the concrete wall was something interesting to be felt in the space.
the Axis of Continuity that leads to the Sackler staircase
Our next stop - Mies Van de Rohe' Berlin Galleria. the Museum was just alright. it's interior, I would said it looks almost the same like the Barcelona Pavilion but just that this is in a bigger scale (this sounds a bit sien, lol)... loads of artworks are in it, including some early works of Jackson Pollock, Picasso and etc.
The next spot was the building that shimmers in gold colour when it reflects the sunlight. It wasn't too far from the Berlin Galleria. The building was by Hans Scharoun, called Berlin Philharmonic Hall and this is one of his masterpiece. We wanted to experience the internal space and sound system but it was too expensive. The ticket for the night performance was 20 over euro...so we scrap that, though we were told that there will be a tourists tour everyday at one in the afternoon, so we have no choice but to come back tomorrow...
So for the dinner, Bavarians people loves to eat sausages. You will see sausages selling at almoist any stalls but this Curry 36 is one of the famous stalls that sell delicious sausages. Why make it so speacial? it is because they have really good scause for the sausages. Well they are a bit expensvie but seriosuly they are dam nice.
sorry my chips covered the sausages...=.=, btw I forget wuts this dish called...paisehback to memorial to take some good shoot... but was a bit late. This place like have different kind of atmophere at different time... it's magnificant.
\the jewels at night... it's sexy isn't?
