An amazing experience to visit Germany, really. The places, architecture, landscapes and libraries are so spellbinding. Of the many places I paid visit - PanoramaPunkt, Museum island, Potsdam, Garden of the World, Schloss Charlottenburg, Story of Berlin, Reichstag and universities – Free, Humboldt, Parliamentary and Technical University Libraries struck you awe-inspiring.
What's surprising more the importance of libraries play in the country: the infrastructure of libraries, cooperation and resource sharing are terribly awesome. The warmth and brotherhood among librarians is something that we should learn, which I observed in the 100. German Library Association conference. What's impressing more the attention and courtesy of people, the governance of institutions and organizations and cleanliness of public places. Social security for all, senior centres for elderly people and law enforcement are exceptionally good. Public transportation is well-planned that you don't get in longer traffics, and modes of transportation also keep people comfortably moving without chaos. The project work combined with the German language classes helped to learn the language easier.
With weather not playing spoil-sport it was warm enough in Spring to go-around, walk up and take pictures in all the locales i put my foot. At the end of the visit, the summer brought in with all warmness amid the cool nights.
It was hard to say bye to the country. And hopefully looking forward to tread the soil of that part of world again!
