Where is this tranquil place?

It's a beautiful Botanical Garden in a stunning scenery. And on the foot of a famous mountain.
You get it?
I'll tell you. And I'll show you a view from the mountain, you'll see the town. Tomorrow.

Berlin Hauptbahnhof

The new main station

Berlin, April 2012

Linked to ABC Wednesday. T is for train spotter. And this is the place for them.
O. k. the truth is: first my choice was train station. But I looked and this is just a station. There is no t.

Typical German

Power station harbor at the Datteln-Hamm-Kanal

The canal, May 2012

Around five kilometers from home. Beside this industry it is a quite and nice area along this canal. It's typical German to look for a niche in a very populated area.
