This immense park outside Berlin in the city of Potsdam is on the UNESCO World Heritage list, along with all its outbuildings, such as Sanssouci Palace and New Palace. Walk around this park with its many palaces, follies, cascading terraces, mini-gardens, and romantic ruins.
Schloss Sanssouci
A fabulous rococo palace with amazing interiors. The baroque decoration is wonderful. Get there early: there is a 2000 person/day entry limit at Schloss Sanssouci.
The beautiful collection of paintings at the Sanssouci Palace.
Neues Palais
The Neues Palais is also worth a visit. One of the most noteworthy rooms in the palace is the Konzertsaal (concert hall) - dripping in rococo glory. This is also adjacent to one of the University of Potsdam's campuses, Am Neuen Palais, so you can expect students and faculty in the surrounding areas.
Alexandrowka consists of a few "Russian Style" houses built for Russian immigrants during the reign of "The Soldier King". House No. 2 (Haus 2) has a very interesting museum while House No. 4 (Haus 4) has an excellent café.
