BERLIN: Jewish Museum (Inside)

I spent more than four hours in the museum and barely scratched the surface. One could easily spend a day there (given the attention span, food, and coffee).

In the first photo, you can see the effect of the slanted windows on the lighting inside. (Check out the night views of the outside of the building in a separate post.)

The next two pictures are from a special exhibit on the Jewish diaspara. I liked how the angle of the surfaces added complexity to the photo montage.

The real discovery for me in this museum was the story of German Jews who fled to China to escape the Nazis.
