Berlin is a HUGE city. It really came a long way since the WWII. We spent 5 days there, but there remains to be more to be explored. The museums are great (particularly the Pergamon and the Neues museums). There is also a computer games museum (Computerspielemuseum) for gamers. Both the Schloss Charlottenburg and the Schloss Sanssoci in Potsdam are worth your visit. The Chinese Cabinet inside Charlottenburg is just impressive and unbelievable. I never saw anyone to display china like this. Potsdam is an interesting place. Visit the Cecilienhof for a quick review on WWII history. This is the Potsdam where the Potsdam Agreement was made. The Berlin Wall segments are underwhelming. The wall is actually just a single wyth brick wall. I guess during the cold wall, it was more symbolic than functional. The patrolling soldiers did the function. However, I'd still recommend to see it. It's real history.
The Berlin Welcome Card (http://www.visitberlin.de/en/welcomecard) is a great saving if you plan ahead.
