This popular subway underpass has become famous in recent years — it's even been in multiple Hollywood movies! Capture the 70s expressionist pop art decor, manifested in the lamp style, vibrant colors of the walls and bright blue sky as you emerge from the stairwell.

The image was taken looking up from the stairwell of the Messedamn bus station underpass that connects to the street level where the International Congress Center ICC Berlin is.
You'll find four similar entrances to the underpass in this area, but I took the photo from the southeast corner of Neue Kantstraße and Messedamm.
To get to this intersection, you can take the Messedamn bus (via 104, 218, 349, M49 or N42) and then head to the southeast corner through the underground passageway. Reference the GPS coordinate in satellite mode for context.
