Dear Luis,
Well we do have more than 1000 museums in Berlin, all sorts of. What are you interested in?
Comparing the museums in Germany with the one in the US I assume that you might be interested in visiting some art museums in Berlin.
So I would recommend all the museums on Museumsinsel (Neues Museum, Pergamon Museum, Bode Museum, Ägyptisches Museum, Altes Museum, Alte Nationalgalerie… and don’t miss the Deutscher Dom – German Cathedral) as well as the Neue Gemäldegalerie.
Links would be:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museumsinsel More details you find on: http://www.smb.museum/smb/home/index.php
Further museums you find on http://www.berlin.de/international/museums/index.en.php#tab1_2
Additionally some history might be interesting to you:
· The DDR museum (GDR museum)
· Walking along the East Side Gallery (the Berlin wall)
· Checkpoint Charlie (one of the border crossings between East and West Berlin during the cold war period)
· Gedenkstätte Berliner Mauer (Berlin Wall Monument)
· Deutsches Historisches Museum (all German history)
· Topographie des Terrors (about the SS and WW2)
What you should definitely not miss is Schloss Sanssoussi (Sanssoussi palace in Potsdam - next city, 20-45min by trainhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanssouci ), one of the palaces of Friedrich der Große (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_the_Great) with a beautiful garden around.
Berlin has a pretty good public transport as well as a good infrastructure for bicycles. By tube and train you get everywhere faster than by car and with a bicycle you are fastest ;-)
In Poland I would recommend to you (when coming from Berlin):
· Wroclaw
· Krakow
· Warszawa
· Gdansk
· Poznan
These are just amazing cities.
All the best and enjoy your trip!
