What else does Berlin have to offer besides tech?

While the masses gather at IFA, Europe's biggest technology show, to fondle the latest and greatest gadgets, film makers James Barber and Hollie Hayton have been finding out what else Berlin has to offer besides lust-worthy tech and seemingly endless supplies of currywurst. 

Find wide-mouthed gawping and plenty of historical facts about the Reichstag, Berlin Cathedral and Brandenburg Gate in the video above.

Of course, James and Hollie will also be visiting IFA itself. Look out for more video shenanigans from the pair over the next few days as they explore IFA in partnership with Philips TV. 

Expect their takes on the latest tech from press day and their favourite gadgets from the labyrinthine halls of the Messe Berlin . There might even be an Ambilight TV or two in there to gawk at too.

For more on Philips TV, check out part two of the Extreme Earth series, where two lucky readers were offered the chance to join Philips on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the Arizona desert. 

The resulting 90-second 4K video and documentary are spectacular pieces of desert eye-candy that are well worth a watch.
