Book Reviews of Lonely Planet Berlin Encounter
Book Review: Best of the bunch
Summary: 4 Stars
This book seemed to be aimed directly at people like me as someone who visited Berlin in the days when the wall was still up and who want to know as much as possible about how different things are now.Like all the best Lonely Planet books the book seemed effortlessly to mold politics, history and the arts into a seamless whole. The section on architecture was particularly good.
It was good to have the U bahn map spread over 2 pages as quite a few books try to condense it onto one page which makes for fiendishly difficult reading for some of us 40 somethings. My only reservation concerns the maps at the back. I did not find these at all easy to follow on my recent trip to Berlin and did better with the free ones from the hotel or the Information office.
My visit was for several days so I was also able to make a day trip to Dresden. The book contained a very useful section on this city.
There seem to be a lot of good guides to Berlin in the shops but this is the one I would recommend to anyone who is a first time visitor or a returnee.
