The rickshaw glides past the Brandenburg Gate as dusk drops over the Spree — wind and city hum brushing past, a warm blanket offered by the guide if the evening bites. Seats face the street, phones up, and a photographer moves with the vehicle to catch the quiet between traffic lights: a different Berlin, framed and slowed.
