Sanssouci
While visiting Potsdam, enjoying all things Sanssouci is essential. Best known for the eponymous palace and surrounding park, we have Frederick the Great to thank for this splendid, UNESCO World Heritage worthy gem. The striking rococo building is difficult to miss thanks to its yellow exterior, and the New Rooms within are equally ornate. Be sure to explore the park grounds as well, which harbor some pretty amazing sights and historical structures in their own right. The stunning ornate Chinese House, The Picture Gallery, and the New Palace await you there.
