By the time 1989 draws to a close, Berlin has changed beyond all recognition. The Wall is no longer the fearful thing it once was.

The Brandenburg Gate, once a symbol of the divided city, opens up to pedestrians.

After 28 years of separation, Berliners from both sides of the city see in the New Year together at the Brandenburg Gate.
