Traces of the Battle of Berlin still visible today (1 Viewer)

When I visited Berlin last year it surprised me how condensed the central area was from the Reichstag to the location of Hitler's bunker. You could walk from one to the other in about two minutes. The Russians were just a mile or less from the Bunker while Hitler was still alive but focused their efforts on the Reichstag. The New and Old Reich Chancellery buildings are completely gone and replaced with apartment buildings and office. You can eat Chinese food on the approximate location of the courtyard of the New Reich Chancellery. Surreal.
