"Around Berlin, between the Elbe and Oder rivers, water, forest, sand, and heath – the Brandenburg landscape." Numerous canals crisscross the region, connecting the Oder, Spree, Havel, and Elbe rivers. Brickworks. Tranquil lakes nestled among forests, pastures, and reed beds. Lake Werbellin with the Schorfheide nature and wildlife reserve. Lake Liepnitz. Lake Bogen. The fishing village of Havelberg. Brandenburg. Schwedt on the Oder. Rheinsberg. Potsdam. And where all the waterways of the Brandenburg region converge: Berlin.
