Checkpoint Charlie was the name given by the Western Allies to the best-known Berlin Wall crossing point between East Berlin and West Berlin during the Cold War (1947-1991).
Nowadays you can have a picture with actors dressed as allied military policemen standing in front of the guard house.

Well this is difficult to explain, there has been a lawsuit about who invented the Currywurst. Two places in Berlin claim to be the first and of course to have the best Currywurst in town. We don’t really care which one was the first, but both are really yummy. Check out at least one them, either Konnopkes (http://www.yelp.com/biz/konnopkes-imbiss-berlin) or Curry36 (http://www.yelp.com/biz/curry-36-berlin). Advantage if you go to Curry36 and one of you don’t want a Currywurst, Mustafas Gemüsedöner (http://www.yelp.com/biz/mustafas-gemüsedöner-berlin) is just a step away - you’ll see the line for sure -> See Mustafas Gemüse Döner
