Overview

The dancing fountains and the superb cupola made of large triangular sails sublimely poised in midair above the central plaza attract thousands of tourists to Potsdamer Platz. Sony's European headquarters built by Helmut Jahn is one of the most important attractions of the new German capital. Besides offices, apartments, and Sony's own trend store the huge, transparent palace of glass and steel houses bars, restaurants, and bistros. The wing dedicated to the Berlin Film Festival is home to Arsenal movie-theatre and the Museum of Cinema. Underneath the plaza there is Cinestar multiplex. Other highlights of entertainment include an Imax cinema.
