The Memorial of the Murdered Jews of Europe

During my last night in Berlin I passed by this very large field of concrete blocks. I remembered my friend Tom Perry talking about this memorial and showing me his picture, but I haven't been there myself before.What confused me was that in his photo the blocks looked so tall. From what I saw however, they seemed just knee-high. I decided to enter the memorial and walk between the blocks in the dark. Without seeing too much I started noticing a slope. Shortly after the memorial swallowed me entirely. Because it goes so far down and the blocks get taller and taller, you can completely disappear in there. I wandered between the blocks for a while in the silence with no one around and was somewhat glad when I got out of it after a while.
Don't miss this impressive piece of art when you are in Berlin.
