Reichstag Dome

Reichstag Dome, Berlin. June 2008

It was an interesting experience to enter a neo_renaissance building with its classical appearance and grandeur, and see this huge glass dome at the top of the building. The large sun shield (on the left) attached to the mirrored cone moves according to the sun to block direct sunlight.

Thoughtful comments are welcome..
