I know the wall's been down for about 15 years now, but how much of it is still there so could I go to east Berlin and actually see where the wall use to be and take a piece of it? And can you even tell on an economic level where the East Berlin use to be? I mean, is that part of Berlin today more poor than west Berlin because of all those years under communist rule?

There's still about 1 or 2 km of it left and you should NOT take a piece of it just like you should NOT pick out pieces from statues, castles and churches. I wonder what weird minds have such thoughts. Take the train to "Ostbahnhof" (East Station), cross the road and then go left but keep your hands and tools from the monument.

You would find small sections of the wall are still on display in Berlin. Local residents can show you around where the wall originally was. I think in one or two places, still parts of the wall is on display at its original site. East Berlin is being developed along with West Berlin under a new unified master plan. Though there are still old buildings of East Berlin, most of the buildings have got a touch of renovation and refurbishment. You might see in the German embassy pictures of how East Germany used to be and how it is now after renovations and refurbishments. You can also enjoy a river cruise, which will show you around the city of Berlin (combined East and West part). Compared to West part I think the East part has more open green spaces. Many things are newly developed. It looks nice.
