Berlin gets into an autumn mood

It was a very long summer in the German capital. But now the deciduous trees are getting more and more colourful. Autumn can no longer be stopped. Berlin turns its face to warm and golden sun-kissed days.

    Fernsehturm

    The "Fernsehturm" (television tower) with its height of 368 meters (1,207 ft) is Germany's tallest structure. On a clear day, the viewing platform offers visibility of up to 40 kilometers (24 miles). The floor above the visitor platform is where a revolving restaurant is located, which rotates once every 30 minutes.
