GERMANY ~ Berlin ~

...  Lovely postcard showing famous places of a city that lights up at night... Berlin is the largest city and the heart of the country... a city which defines Germany and its culture... because the western and eastern parts of Berlin were separated from 1949 until 1989, Berlin is one of the most diverse cities in the European Union... well known for its universities, as well as its museums and research facilities... it is the most popular city break destination in Germany and a top European destination... with great stamp and special first day cancellation👍... Thanks Dustin! (✿◠‿◠)
The city is located on the rivers Havel and Spree, and is surrounded by the state of Brandenburg and became the capital of Germany 1871. 

Berlin was founded in the 13thC after Germanic peoples settled on the land that was once a Slavic area.
It was located strategically between two significant historic trade routes and is one of the oldest towns in the world.
