The Contrasts of Berlin

You walk along friedrichstrasse and from one end to the other you experience several diverse and often incompatible worlds. And it isn't a smooth transition either. You have the delapidating building and right next to it is the 4-star hotel with its imposing facade coming out of the imposing 20s of the industrial and construction grandiosity. Right next to the baroque shop full of a mixture of kitch and tasteless perversions.
