Berlin live - a quick overview

Berlin (ots)

On its channel "Stadtleben" (city life), berlin1.de
presents moving images from the life of the metropolis and time
travels into very recent history.
This year, Berlin hotels are expecting almost 11 million overnight
stays. Millions of other visitors will stay with friends or
acquaintances, coming for the Love Parade or just for a day trip. For
Berlin flair, the curious, the fans and the casual browsers might
pick up a bit of atmosphere at berlin1.de. Starting immediately in
its "Berlin Rundum" (all around Berlin) section, a webcam sends 360°
panorama pictures from the Neuen Kranzlereck near the
Kurfuerstendamm. These pictures will be updated every hour. The
viewer can move around within the image and change the line of sight
- just as if he were on the spot.
The virtual time travels on berlin1.de are also very exciting for
the actual visitor. They demonstrate impressively how prominent
places changed from the point of view of town planning over the last
few years. Shown in fast motion, the redevelopment of Potsdamer Platz
becomes more comprehensible; the development from Europe's largest
building site to a center of the New Berlin is presented very vividly
to the viewer. Taking the Spreebogen (a bend in the Spree river) as
an example, one can reconstruct the emergence of the new
parliamentary and government district of Berlin since 1996.
In addition to the Berlin panoramas and time travels, berlin1.de
offers a great variety of information on Berlin, of special interest
to travelers visiting the city. On berlin1.de, the user can easily
find important travel and entertainment tips.
Further information on "Berlin Rundum" - All around Berlin - can

Berlin1.de is a new portal provided by Ullstein GmbH, a wholly
owned subsidiary of the publisher Axel Springer Verlag AG. Offering
recent news from Berlin and the entire world, berlin1.de is more than
just a portal for Berlin. No matter what the taste - sports, family
or culture - berlin1.de offers an extra channel with special service
offerings.
