BERLIN (09092009)

Today was of the last day in Berlin (though we will come back for one more day after Wolfsburg), cause we gonna take the night train to go to Munich. So, today we try to explore as much those famous places that we have not check out. At first we went to the Museum Island, there are several museums in here but we've got no time to enter of them so we just took some picture at the public space.Behind the sculpture, Altes Museum

Celdrick with his international finger signature and me
the Berlin Cathedral

After some quick shooting, we headed to IMPEI Deutsches Historisches Museum, yes, again. and this time we gonna enter the building yay!

I've never been or actually see I.M. Pei building before, because I do not fancy geometric designs?... but his spaces within was IMPRESSIVE! The layering and the leveling of the spaces within the glass box is so interesthing and they appear as if heavy concrete floating in the air.
the perfect circle.


A glassroof courtyard transitional space before the main exhibitions.
Me at the old Deutsches Historisches Museum InteriorAfter that we went to Berlin Philharmonic Hall again. This time, we have a trip to follow, and you knwow hat the tour guide could converse in 3 languages, English, German, and Spanish... and she explain about this building to us using these 3 languages... incredible. Well, as you can see, the circulation spaces within this building is done in a poetic way. Though the staircases are pleasant to the eyes, but using it to go to th VIP room on the top floor are just too tire... beautiful and sustainable glasses
The auditorium. The interesthing part of the auditoriums is that they are actually designed as centralize type instead of shoebox shape which is suppose the conventional shape for auditorium. The reason for this is that Hann wanted the people feel closer to the performer and be a part of the performance...We went to Bauhaus Archiv in Berlin as there is a exhibition there ACCORDING TO CELDRICK... because when we got there, the exhibition was actually at somewhere else...so obvious Celdrick you've got the wrong information... haizLast but not least how can we missed out OMA Dutch Ambassy in Berlin... haha... though we cna not enter the building, it's kinda wasted but never mind we are satisfy with just the exterior views...there are just so much more to explore in Berlin but there is just so little time...for now, Buh bye Berlin for we will be back on the 13th day ;) for now the journey continues in Munich.:P
I know this is chips but in order to save money to visit more places for another 10 more days we've got no choice but to have this for our dinner :'(
