The attractive ambience of Potsdam, the Brandenburg state capital, which is situated opposite Berlin metropolis on an island between the branched arms of river Havel is best found on the occasion of a visit to the beautiful castle and park complex, which is part of the UNESCO world cultural heritage. The picturesque sight of the world-renowned Sanssouci summer residence with its fountains and vineyard terraces, on which Frederick the Great strolled, or the walk through the tree-lined avenue to the Neue Palais (new palace), which is the last large castle complex in the Prussian baroque style, let you imagine why once electors, kings and the emperor chose Potsdam to be their royal seat. All of them strolled through the park of Sanssouci Castle, which is one of Europe’s most significant and most extensive park areas.
