The Brandenburg Gate, also known as the Arc de Triomphe, in Paris Square, is a landmark of Berlin and a witness of many important historical events in Germany. It has the style of the colonnade in the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. There are six Doric pillars in front and back, which support five corridors 11 meters deep. The bronze statue at the top of the door is 5 meters high. The goddess wears a laurel crown, has wings on her back and rides a two-wheeled chariot with four steeds. The cross of the eagle with wings is held high in her right hand, which symbolizes the victory of the unified German war of the King of Prussia. Ironically, Napoleon, the first emperor of France in occupied Berlin, brought back to Paris as a trophy after his victory over Prussia in 1806, which was a great shame to Germany. Napoleon was sent back to France in 1814 after he lost to Prussia. In 1945, the Arc de Triomphe was destroyed by Soviet Red Army artillery until it was restored and recast by the East German government in 1958. During the split between East and West Germany, the remaining Berlin Gate became a dividing point, and no one passed through it for decades. Until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the Brandenburg Gate became a symbol of the unity of Germany and Germany. Tips: There are few visitors to Brandenburg Gate in the early morning. Always parked a few carriages, waiting for people to sit up and experience the way people traveled during the reign of Frederick William II.
