Borsigturm in Berlin really stood out to us — we loved the architecture and the entire industrial atmosphere of the area. There's something raw yet elegant about the old brick structures and how they blend with the modern surroundings. Walking around there during sunset made it even more impressive; the golden light brought out all the textures and details of the tower and nearby buildings. An interesting fact: Borsigturm was actually the first high-rise building in Berlin, completed in 1924. It was part of the Borsigwerke factory complex, which used to be one of the largest locomotive producers in Europe. That industrial legacy still lingers in the area and gives it a unique, authentic Berlin vibe.
