Click on photos for larger versions.There is still a 1Km section of the Berlin Wall standing, which runs down the north bank of the river Spree at Friedrichshain. It's referred to locally and in guide books as the "East Side Gallery" because the authorities have hired some professional graffiti artists to adorn it with fresh works. A lot of it is in a bad condition and I wonder are there any plans to restore it structurally. It would be a pity if this historic symbol of the 'Cold War' were allowed to just crumble away. It's possible to see the old East Berlin TV tower straight ahead in shot number one.
