You step off the coach into Mitte as winter light skims the glass of the Reichstag and the Spree dares you to follow its slow current through the city. The air smells faintly of roasted chestnuts in colder months and coffee year-round; your guide folds history into each block as you move from Charlottenburg’s baroque facades to the open plane of the Brandenburg Gate.
