Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama arrived in Berlin on Thursday, kicking off the European leg of his overseas trip amid high expectations. Over 200,000 Berliners eagerly awaited Obama’s speech in front of the Tiergarten’s 226-foot high Victory Column, which previously has been a backdrop for various mass events.

For many Germans, Obama is the embodiment of the American dream and the ideal of a land of opportunity where everyone can make it to the top, regardless of race or social background. At a moment when anti-American sentiments have reached unprecedented heights in Germany, Obama is seen by many Germans as a symbol of hope and change for the good.

This detailed article presents a number of photographs, three videos (including the live video of Obama's full speech given at Berlin's Victory Column) and an extensive slideshow of photographs from the event.
