Hotels in Berlin in early November are in high demand among the Germans, as well as, foreign tourists, coming to the capital of Germany in this period.

On the 9th of November 9, 2009 the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall will be celebrated in Berlin.

The 9th of November for Germany – is truly a decisive day. Germans themselves call is Schicksalstag – “fateful day”. In different period the 9th of November used to become a key date for Germany. On the 9th of November 1918 the overthrow of the monarchy took place in Germany. One of the darkest pages in the history of the country - Beer Hall Putsch in 1923 and Kristallnacht in 1938, when pogroms of Jewish property began – also occurred on the 9th of November. The 9th of November 1989, the day when the Berlin Wall fell, opened a new stage in the development of German nation and closed the period of disunity. For the rest of the world the collapse of the Berlin Wall became a symbol of unity and the end of the era of isolation of Western and Eastern countries.
