The Berlin wall was demolished on 13 June 1990 and was totally taken apart in 1992.
Some time ago, there were 4 blocks of the Berlin Wall at the Bedok Reservoir Park. The owners of that four blocks have since moved it back to the US.
Do you know there are 2 other blocks of the Berlin Wall in Singapore?
These 2 blocks are not as pretty and they are not enclosed in some glass enclosure.

I also have many friends who loves cooking and love a good set of knives. So many brands to choose or rather so many brands to covet!
