[2025 Berlin Attraction] Travel Guide for Alte Nationalgalerie (Updated Jul)

This is the ‘Pergamon Museum’ located on Museum Island, where you can enter for free if you purchase the Berlin Museum Pass. The large-scale exhibits that you cannot experience at other European national art museums were impressive. In particular, the large-scale exhibits such as the Pergamon Altar, Ishtar Gate, and Market Gate made you realize why this museum is famous. I highly recommend visiting, and there are other art museums nearby, so it is a good place to visit together. #Germany #GermanyTravel #Berlin #BerlinTravel

#January travel support event #Germany travel #Places to visit in Berlin I will tell you about a good way to take a walk while looking at the beautiful buildings in Berlin. It is the street of the Old National Gallery in Berlin. There are many flea markets near here on weekends, so it is great to look around and take a walk.

Berlin’s Museum Island is a grand work of art: five world-famous museum buildings from the time of the Prussian rulers, together with the modern James Simon Gallery, form an exciting ensemble that was awarded UNESCO World Heritage status in 1999. 🏛️Pergamon Museum 🏛️Old National Gallery 🏛️TheBode Museum 🏛️The Old Museum 🏛️The New Museum #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #tripblazers #berlin #germany #europe #museum #history #本地遊 #urbanexplorer
