The Berlin Wall wasn't simply a physical border. The video here paints a vivid picture of how this seemingly impenetrable structure went through the heart of Berlin. Families were separated overnight, friends couldn't visit each other freely, and the Berlin Wall's construction led to a devastating housing crisis in West Berlin. You can still see some of these problems in the city today.

Think momentarily about a lone figure gazing over a vast, foggy mountain landscape. I can imagine what passed through your mind, and I bet it references a painting. That's the iconic image in Caspar David Friedrich's famous painting, "Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog."

When Beth Harmon went to Paris in 1967, some outside shots are used to transport the audience from the US straight into Europe. One of the shots was easy to recognize for us since it showed a piece of the Museum Island, in the heart of Berlin.

Many cities claim fame for their art scenes, but only a few come with their killer soundtrack, right? Berlin has its own rhythm, from Lou Reed to Iggy Pop, Atari Teenage Riot to Depeche Mode. And for those lucky ones who lived here in the late ’70s, the spirit of David Bowie still hangs in the Berlin air like glitter in a rockstar’s hair.

When you visit the Dussmann das Kulturkaufhaus in Berlin, you will step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history of the Berlin Wall. On the third floor of this celebrated cultural department store, you'll find a distinctive piece of the Berlin Wall signed by former US President Ronald Reagan. Which we guarantee is not something you see every day.

Early on a Friday morning, I took my drone to Tempelhof with the explicit goal of capturing how gorgeous the park looks like covered in snow from above. And the pictures and videos I shot there prove that I was right to leave the comfort of my house and head to the park.
