Berlin, a former mill town of 9,400 in New Hampshire's North Country, sits where Routes 2 and 16 intersect along the Androscoggin River. Route 2 connects east to Gorham and west toward Vermont, while Route 16 runs south to Conway and the White Mountains.

The city's 400-foot-tall smokestack from the old pulp mill stands as a landmark visible for miles around.
