History Highlight #2 - Karl-Marx-Allee

A 2km long stretch of socialist wedding cake style architecture lines the road of Karl-Marx-Allee in East Berlin. It was built to be the showcase street of the East Germany and is where they had their military parades.

I think it's beautiful, but many people don't like it. Some people says it makes them feel like they're in Moscow or Kyiv, which I can see. What do you think of it?
