Five explosive cities that holds something special in store for 2009: On the 9th of November 2009 Berlin is celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. This means celebrations, exhibitions and events all throughout the year in. If the anniversary is not enough of a reason for you: maybe the World Championship in Athletics is? 2009 is the perfect year for a visit to the German capital. Visit Havana 50 years after the revolution and form you own opinion of the much discussed Cuba. Experience the music and the rhythms in every street corner and feel the wing strokes of the past. The city is not only the capital of Lithuania but also the European Capital of Culture in 2009. That will be celebrated with music, dance, theatre and different shows, exhibitions and workshops during 2009. With less than two weeks to president Obama's inauguration ceremony Washington is hotter than for years. The 20th is the date to keep in mind, but the celebrations are starting already on the 18th of January with a welcome ceremony and will continue for four days. The Icelandic krona is still low and Iceland is cheaper for tourists right now. Take the chance to explore Reykjavik's charm and combine city life with hot springs and tours of the countryside.
