right there. it's the most visited parliament in the world. every year, at 1850000 people a sense that ice pack don't a popular viewing platform over the city. but if you're only looking into the distance, you'll miss item what's done below. here are some of the exciting things you can expect to see on a tour, and what you need to know before you visit the next time. before we go in, let's take a look at this excerpt from the basic law or germany's constitution. it regulates the most basic rights and duties of its citizens and turn 75 years old in 2024. crucial for me. as a journalist, need a high every person shall have the right to freely to express and disseminate the opinions. and so be writing in pictures i just said there should be no censorship. so how do you get it? you have to do it in advance. online is the best way to do that. that ice tech is open daily from 8 am to midnight. sonya i should a to is my guide today,

a judge by profession. she's been a bonus tech deputy since 2021. i cite the plenary whole a copy of the constitution, gravitas, i think the most important also to linda german constitution is also cool. one by human dignity shall be inviolable. the constitution obeys the clothes that we have in germany is based on the posting on the individual. and then on the rights of the individual person and how we can live together in the community. and in all nations . traces of the past can be signed all over the guys talking here on the ground floor. red army soldiers left their mark as they celebrated victory over nazi germany. in may. 1945. this arch installation also documents the parliament's eventful history. as this, i think this must be all kinds of german mendez's parliament m o deputies to a democratically elected from world war one to 1999 have a box. and you'll also see members of parliament who will not,

things have gone to the end of the body, will serve victims of national socialism. this is where the political work happened behind this glass wall is the plenary chamber with the deputies. me certainly who move on. this is a really special plane mens of asked and entering the plenary chamber for the 1st time was a big movement for me. it's so great that i can represent the people in my constituency, the populace and the on nation here. the talk visitor attractions are the don't on the terrace. there's a fabulous view from here to glassdoor symbolizes transparency and open. the fact is, is architect newman foster, really designs the buddhist, talk my design so that you can do can sorry to tie. he didn't, you can watch the m p 's at work, so to speak. i yeah, and that's just the way it should be because of the old was supposed to be representing the people we should be may king decisions for the country and the

people our reports wouldn't be complete without the food recommendation. so let's check out some delicious german cruising in the government district. this steph on ship. all of them is within sight of that i sack and is super popular with both politicians and tourist select staff is short for extending essentially told or permanent representation after unification. when the bonus tag was relocated here from born in 1999, many stuff on politicians moved with it, and the restaurant has helped to ease any sense of homesickness. it serves specialities from the rhine area on the backs of the refresh please. this is a super traditional german dish is caused by emissions essentially means of course be here to go with that. okay, i can totally see why that ice pack is one of the most visited sites in berlin. and

it's not just because of the view. you learn so much about german politics and history just by being here in the government district. i mean it's one thing to know how important democracy is, but it's another thing entirely to see it in action. now to barcelona spain to the studio of painter jasmine alicia carter are often buddhist inspired monologues are done in shades of deep red and brown match. because the artist only uses fluid from a very special, very personal source. ready ready ready this is the medium jasmine alicia carter paints with still perfectly fresh, watery dark, crimson red. its blood, her own. this is my period blood and i paint with an after every cycle, the artist prost as her experiences and feelings of the back last month through her

painting. in 2016, she started painting with her own menstrual blood. but she had to get used to the idea 1st. okay. and i really doing this as really weird, you know, like i never see the stuff the or is it i was just having this willingness. so i want to go deep because my parents are just so painful, they have been so painful. i had to get cocktails of medicines to know in the hopes to make a go away, and mostly times it not even the meds could help. and this concept feeling of having to hide them and just not understanding where to put them like it and it was just too much. art has helped jasmine alicia carter. she pains with a brush or with her fingers on water color paper. she collects her blood with a menstrual cup and can keep it in the fridge for several days. when jasmine started painting at age 25,

she had no precedence to follow. so she developed her own techniques. and just as this to live and as it is goes where it has to go in a certain way. and it also makes it a little bit difficult because i need to understand that sometimes it's a little bit more sly. and sometimes it's a little bit more liquid and ready, so i just have to kind of slow, it's been in some sense i sometimes i have to separate more slimy part from the, from the more reddish parts. like it's, it's something that requires a lot of work good and i and i love that. i personally love it so, so, so much the, many of my clients and i'm having so many clause how can i resolve this issue? right. so it has to come with also taking care of your home health. so it's a side effect. so big part of having such a beautiful pigment of blood and to be able to create nice artwork is also in

parallel to have a very healthy room for jasmine, her art goes beyond the personal as a body mentor. she tries to encourage others to get to know their own bodies. she's even founded a movement for menstrual art. but on social media, her work is not always well received. i also receive blackmail. sometimes sometimes they tell me you should never come to my country or will jail you, we will slaughter you like to get really deep into this. it occurs to me all possible ways. everything about the woman is so considered so taboo. breaking the taboo surrounding menstruation is also the theme of an exhibition at berlin's museum of oil. payers shall go tools and the exhibition deals with issues like hygiene products and they're shifting social attitudes towards women's periods

through the ages curator yana vicki. and so now has also created a space for discussion about to ministration. subscript have to them interested us or half of human kind directly and the other half indirectly. you support home and, and what it's about when we talk about menstruation is, in fact, least of all the blood itself is the core of the matter. it is in every day objects, shavings, of topics and discourses and much, much more that we come into contact with on a daily basis. i just didn't talk in greenville and many of the pieces on exhibit come burdened with norms and preconceptions about the menstrual period. artist representations also revealed the ways administrating women are politically disadvantaged and routinely stigmatized. crunch can art, could lift the taboos on the topic and encourage greater visibility on it. is that people in bidding them and also from number 2, it is

a really tough we many society align vx sufficient, a shocking and forces people to ask why? summer reports by menstruation and that's good for jasmine, minstrel. painting is a way to feel more in tune with her entire body. the, the artist is now grateful for the period she once found, so painful and hated. for me bringing period that is something so stigmatized that is something so type of something that like has so much charge for so many people and put it into a context of beauty is so healing on its own and it's, it's part of my message and how i want to bring forth my message into the world through her art, both aesthetic and controversial. jasmine alicia carter turns the spotlight on

women's menstrual cycles and invites people to shift their perspective eating healthily. that's what the so called slow food movement aims to promote it was founded in the 1980s in italy and remains active world wide. but it's committed to much more than just healthy eating. edward, which tv from uganda is leading the charge edward lucida of uganda is on a mission to improve the world with good nutrition for all. i am in writing materials. i'm the president of stuff for the international. my goal is to make sure that each and every human being on the planet has access to and come enjoy would clean unfair for edward mood. she has headed this organization with a snail as it symbols. since 2022. he comes to the small italian town across the movements headquarters several times a year. to me as an african from you,

then that sort of for the means address for the network that is supporting and working with local communities for beautiful silver. i need to, we work with the communities of pharma as communities of young people communities, so the indigenous people keep saga is edwards hometown and you've gone to a farmer's son. he started working in the fields from an early age, unaware that fair, farming and healthy food would become his mission in life. i was forced to do a good cottage as if i just meant at school. back to this punishment turned out to be my lifetime passion and driving force to make james farmer know well. now noon yes, field serves as an example for the slow food group and he's so got just north of lake victoria. she's learned how to planted ecologically and sustainably without chemicals or genetically modified, see grain using tried and tested methods. so that's

a good then. so we embrace the, the rusty and our garden. we also make sure that we try to protect our plants. so we to the risk of extinction. do they provide for the security to slow food? uganda started in 2006 and now has over 30000 members. they support farmers markets with regionally growing produce work with student groups and in so called chef alliance. and association of ships who use regional and seasonal ingredients prepared according to slow food principals. betty not cottle runs a catering service. she's been part of the shep alliance for nearly 8 years, cooking, mainly traditional dishes, traditional foods that really helped us to really interest more of our culture. and

to give us a sense of belonging. i really sung good for this slow food that they are trying to viewed. that's called check to empower us in foods to have that to go to that it's not pushed out with the slow food movement got started at piedmont, northern italy known for wine, hazelnut persimmons, and other regional products. the movement was founded by car lopez cleaning in 1986 . the year edward la tv was born caught a little between the join with other activists to fight against the fast food chains inside settings to take uh, of, uh, uh, lead us it from such a big thing that i caught up at the beginning. but to me it's also got you, does the lining up watching it? i see like i have a lot to offer. i have a lot of experience to share with their what i would from my communities, from my country, from my clinton intended that we this is the only way we kind of breeds that if i'm

growing up between the north end, the south from italy slow food has conquered the world currently operating in $160.00 countries edits headquarters and broad edward meets with members from around the world and coordinates global strategies. their work focuses on education and information campaigns. because only way that clear no day during the how the food we eat under the system under which it's produced is affecting the planet. i'm now i have is when we can make better choices. edward would she be also develops new ideas that you gone to slow food branch? his favorite fields to work on are the ones belonging to his parents and other farmers in the area where he still passionately lends a hand. they're an indispensable element of the eucharist and catholic mass communion wafers. but what's the religious meaning behind them? and how are they made? a catholic herself dw reporter megan lee,

went to away for bakery and southern germany to find out have you ever eaten one of these and wondered where it comes from? these little wafers are known as communion house or eucharist house and there passed out widely during christian services. well, many of europe's hosts come from this bakery. the family run clump at green southern germany has been making communion hosts for 3 generations. so where does this tradition come from? that's what i want to find out. the bakery located in the southern germantown of austin. housing is one of only a handful of bakeries in germany which makes communion hosts. and it's their only product produced by a team of 5 employees. today they produce $200000.00 wafers per day by machine. in the past, it was laborious. manual labor prof clump is the owner and operating manager of the

family business, which started over 40 years ago. my old father, my grandfather, produced pasto before the war before the 2nd world war. often after the 2nd world war, things didn't go so well. then a monastery in the area suggested that he could produce wayford. that's how my family came to produce, wafers and divine. if i mean, if the family is bound by the oath of communion wafer producers, according to the laws of the roman catholic church, that means wafers must only consist of flower and water. and the bread must also be 11, meaning without the use of leavening agents such as used for there are also blue and free versions for those who are allergic to reach. the bakery delivers to 1500 churches across germany and other european countries. these are still simple or secular way 1st. so can i taste this is allowed outside the catholic church. yeah, they haven't been consecrated yet. so it's possible. okay, so i can try it,

let's say the okay, know how much taste let me just say it's like a scale cookie. and they dissolve in your mouth to find out more about how communion wafers are used in christian religious services. i went to saint joseph church in berlin. we're father, stuff on debowski was holding mass the. so why are the way 1st served here in what do they symbolize? but you can go to steve sting at every church service. we think about what jesus did. 2000 years ago and it said he had a meal with his friends with his followers. and on this occasion, he also used the bread and where this tradition come from. this coming all seemed beautiful. this comes from the jewish religion. the will not enough the jews

celebrated passover and there was also one living to brad to support. and jesus was a jew, so he knew about jewish traditions, and he celebrated pass over with his friends and bred was used to pass the office cuz i, it was, i'm port so then is this unconscious crated or consecrated bread 9? does this or no? this is unconsciously created, now hiding this, the bread is consecrated during holy mass consecrated means transformed. this means that the bread becomes the body of christ and life. christie, receiving the host is at the heart of christian worship. it's a reminder of the words that jesus said at his last supper. take this and eat it. this is my body. back in austin, housing, i wonder, is dwindling. church members in germany has effected production output since a lot of people have left the church, do you notice that production has gone down in recent years?

jago homes, i yes, we've actually seen a drop in sale since the corona virus. so before co but we had, let's say 100 percent and during coping we were down 50 percent. then now we're back to around 80 percent of our production before colbin optic, sports and funk of whatnot said what are the busiest times for you in the yard the the top, the busiest times or during the big catholic holidays like all saints day or christmas going east or below, you know, and then it continues until a corpus kristie before and these are the busiest times the whole thing. but communion wafers are still in the central part of holy mass. and saint josephs, church, even if it's not the holidays, the man who can receive the spread in front bones. we haven't, can we prepare children for the fact that this is a special brand support this, that it's not just an ordinary brand that you buy in the bakery big on long calls that's also valuable. but here again, the priest speaks the words that jesus spoke at the last supper. fees will spend

minutes, mike as well. and that that is why it has been transformed into the body in the blood of christ. this is always how they can. this is not visible on the outside hose outwardly. it looks like a piece of bread of us, but there are also many things in life that can transform you the most beautiful as loves. it's a cd, but i certainly feel in light and i had no idea how much it actually goes into making one little wafer. what kind of food is considered holy, where your from from holy to heat and mystic wind dancing and a club. it can get pretty hot, so why not use this to generate power? that's exactly what a club in the scottish city of glasgow does. we take a look at how energy conversion can work the here clusters help save the environment. one dance move at a time. the w g 3 club in glasgow stores,

party goers, body heat for reuse because these days people want things to be more sustainable. even going out through like when you can contribute to help in lake environment and stuff like full then it needs to be a part of the raven, another 70 the kid plan on this system is called body heat and it turns dance floors. and so many power plants, each person provide some 150 to 450 watts, and since 2020 to the club has been using that energy throughout its venue. e, during the day. the aim is to cut fossil fuel use to 0. we're trying to capture and harness the energy created by heat and gigs are clubs which is store that and use that to heat into spaces or in the van. you're either at that time or

a later time and we're doing that so that we can reduce our energy footprint. august electricity consumption, and then remove gas completely from the venue. ventilator is on the ceiling, absorb the warm air from the 3 dance floors heat pumps, then convey the energy into the yard using the carrier fluid there, it's stored in 200 meter d, polls to be reused during the day. the innovative system is one of a kind david townsend as an entrepreneur in the energy sector and he spent 3 years developing it. the heat comes from the boxes in the ceiling all the way to the bar holes in, you know, a minute or less. but the amount of time you can store the heat in the rock is, is very flexible. so we can, we can put heat in there during the night and take it out during the day. but we can also put lots of heat in there during the summer. and take it out in the winter

. so we knew multiple different length of storage. but how much d o 2? does the system cost and does it really sustainable? so heat pumps operate really efficiently. and so you only need a little bit of electrical energy to do a lot of heating and equally on the cooling sides. so by removing the gas boilers from the heating system, we're saving 70 tons of c o 2 per year. so the electricity comes from the grid, but the venue has signed up to a 100 percent renewable energy, electricity time. so the electricity is full coming from renewable sources, which means in scotland, especially on a rainy day like this is coming from wind energy with a price tag of $700000.00 bureaus. installing body heat isn't cheap, but other clubs are still looking to follow suit. sustainable is really important to everyone just now i know for just the business sustainability of the industry and people really need be looking at higher. they can survive in the future if we

reduce, we need where we need to go forward a. so the beautiful thing with buddy, he invites the customer into that and they don't need to do anything different. they need to show up and they need to dance and have funding, and they're actively contributing to the reduction of energy and those environments . this club in scotland is paving the way and showing that protecting the environment can be a lot of fun. here, excess is good. the wild is a dancing, the more it helps the planet. and with that, we wrap up another addition of your own max. be sure to follow us on social media for more exciting stories from around europe. thanks for joining us and see you then next week, the
