The Brandenburg Gate (German: Brandenburger Tor is an 18th-century neoclassical monument in Berlin, built on the orders of Prussian king Frederick William II after restoring the Orangist power by suppressing the Dutch popular unrest. One of the best-known landmarks of Germany, it was built on the site of a former city gate that marked the start of the road from Berlin to the town of Brandenburg an der Havel, which used to be the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg.
It is located in the western part of the city centre of Berlin within Mitte, at the junction of Unter den Linden and Ebertstraße, immediately west of the Pariser Platz. One block to the north stands the Reichstag building, which houses the German parliament (Bundestag). The gate is the monumental entry to Unter den Linden, a boulevard of linden trees which led directly to the royal City Palace of the Prussian monarchs.
Throughout its existence, the Brandenburg Gate was often a site for major historical events and is today considered not only as a symbol of the tumultuous histories of Germany and Europe, but also of European unity and peace.

I should point out that I was standing in deep shadow at the edge of the graveyard, looking out over sunlit fields. The symbolism, I trust, is obvious.
If you think of property / or running a business / start with a formal gate. // Sometimes / that's all that will be.

And now I'll tell you a huge secret: this is the underwater gate which leads you to a legendary city called... Atlantis! YES! I swear, I found it! It's beatiful there, but I left soon because it was just too difficult to get my laundry dry. ;-)
