You find the Reichstag and the new government buildings north of Tiergarten park on the Spree river. There is a bus stop in front of the buildings (100, 200) or you walk along Ebertstrasse from the S-train station Unter den Linden (S1, S2, S25, S26). Across the Spree river you find the new central train station at Lehrter Strasse.

The Reichstag was built from 1884 to 1894 in Neo Renaissance style to be the seat of the German parliament for hardly 40 years: After the arson attack in 1933 the building stood empty.

You can climb into Sir Norman Foster's glass dome and take photographs from the viewing platform. Downstairs there is an exhibition on the history of the Reichstag building, there is a garden restaurant on top.

Across the Spree river you find the new government buildings the office of the chancellor, the members of parliament and the administrative buildings.
