Every year at Christmas time, the magnificent boulevard Unter den Linden shines bright with a thousand lights - sometimes colorful, sometimes in classic gold.
The wide central promenade of the boulevard is lined with silver lime trees, which are lovingly decorated with fairy lights at the end of November. The street is thus transformed into a veritable avenue of lights, inviting visitors to stroll, marvel and get into the holiday spirit.
After a leisurely stroll along the boulevard, you reach the Brandenburg Gate, where a large Christmas tree is erected and festively decorated each year. Last year, a stately 15-meter Nordmann fir tree sparkled along with the stars in the sky in front of Berlin's most famous landmark.
