#RoyalPalace #Germany #QueenofTears Sanssouci Palace is a Baroque-style palace located in Potsdam, Germany, famous for its elegant design and beautiful gardens. The palace was the summer residence of King Frederick the Great of Prussia, and was intended to provide a retreat from state affairs. The name of Souci Palace means "without worries", which just reflects the tranquility and elegance of this place. Construction of Sanssouci Palace began in 1745, as Frederick the Great hoped to enjoy his retirement here. The palace was designed by architect Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff and completed in 1755. Sanssouci Palace was not only the private residence of Frederick the Great, but also became the center of European culture and art at that time, attracting many literati and scholars. The architectural style of Sanssouci Palace is unique, combining elements of Baroque and Rococo. The palace's exterior is notable for its elaborate decoration and elegant proportions, especially the round arches on the facade and the gardens on both sides. The interior is equally magnificent, with exquisite murals, sculptures and furniture, showcasing the artistic style of the 18th century. The garden behind the palace is another highlight of the Palace of Souci. The overlapping flower beds and neatly trimmed trees make people feel as if they are in a dreamy wonderland. 🕰️Opening hours: Daily from 9:00 to 18:00 (summer) and 9:00 to 17:00 (winter) 💰Per capita consumption: Admission is 12 euros per person, and students and seniors can enjoy discounted ticket prices.

First up is the Sanssouci Park, a vast park with several small palaces and sculptures, perfect for strolling and taking photos. In addition, the nearby Summer Palace (Neues Palais) and Museum Barberini are also worth exploring, allowing you to gain more from your cultural trip to Potsdam. 💞Recommended reasons: For fans of Korean dramas, Muyou Palace is also one of the filming locations of "Queen of Tears". In the palace garden, there is a special check-in spot, which is the scene where the protagonists of the play have a romantic encounter. The beautiful scenery and romantic atmosphere here remind people of the touching moments in the drama. Remember to take beautiful photos here and share your travel stories with your friends!

Potsdam is amazing every day. Various. Beautiful architecture. The University of Potsdam is one of the most beautiful buildings. I was in the yard of the new palace for the first time. The King of Prussia built it during the Seven Years' War. The architecture is different. However, the monuments are not so good. It seems that the buildings were built cheaply. #mytripvlog #2023travelwish #tripblazers If you visit this beautiful city, you will understand how peaceful and beautiful it is

No visit to Berlin is complete without visiting the impressive (& free of charge!) imperial park in Potsdam, located just 40 minutes from the Berlin city centre in zone C. Sansoucci Park is dog-friendly and one can walk there for hours. Plan it as a day trip and explore the Potsdam city as well! This park is home to multiple palaces and picturesque gardens. Entry to the park is free, but there might be a charge to visit the park buildings. #urbanexplorer #palace #germany

The Prussian kings and princes created a fascinating retreat comprised of palaces and parks in Potsdam. With over 500 hectares of parkland and 150 buildings built between 1730 and 1916, Potsdam's palace and park complex was a model of excellence across Europe. The 17 original palaces are spread across three parks in Potsdam and the city centre near to Berlin. They offer a huge array of palaces that shape one of the greatest UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Germany. Every Prussian ruler left his own legacy to the city with his buildings. Those who know the history and lives of rulers will quickly recognize which palace was built by which king. They reflect power and wealth, as well as a love of Italian architecture and the Chinoiserie style. #celebratewithtrip#fallingforfall #feetnotrootspesnaoraizes #park #walking #nature #architecture #italianart #potsdam

Potsdam is a city on the border of Berlin, Germany. The Sanssouci Palace is located in Potsdam and was once the summer residence of the former Prussian King Frederick the Great. "The picturesque pastoral dream" is the main goal of the residents in building this city. This over 1,000-year-old city is famous for its palaces, lakes, and overall historical and cultural significance. #potsdam #germany

Potsdam is the capital of the German state of Brandenburg and part of the Berlin/Brandenburg metropolitan area. Potsdam sits on the Havel River, a tributary of the Elbe downstream from Berlin, in a mountainous moraine landscape dotted with many lakes, about 20 of which are within the city limits. This over 1,000-year-old city is famous for its palaces, lakes, and its overall historical and cultural significance. Landmarks include the park and palace of Sanssouci, Germany's largest World Heritage Site, as well as other palaces such as the Orangery Palace, the New Palace, the Cecilienhof Palace and the Charlottenhof Palace. Potsdam was also the site of the important Potsdam Conference in 1945, where the three heads of government of the Soviet Union, the United States and the United Kingdom decided on the division of Germany after its surrender at the Cecilienhof Palace, defining the 45 years of German history before reunification. The Glenicke Bridge over the Havel River near Cecilienhof Palace (the iron bridge in the center of Figure 2) was the only bridge connecting East and West Berlin that was completely controlled by the Soviet army during the Cold War. It was also called the "Bridge of Spies" because it was the place where the United States and the Soviet Union used it to exchange captured spies during the Cold War, including U2 spy plane pilots shot down by the Soviet Union. If you want to travel and vacation in a German city, Potsdam will not disappoint you. #greentourism #germanytravel #WWIIrelics #worldculturalheritage #worldheritage #palace #deutschland #potsdam #nuesco #potsdamannouncement

📍Potsdamer Platz (10785 Berlin, Germany) December 26th in Germany, also known as the 2nd Christmas! Germany designated the day after Christmas as a national holiday, so the Christmas atmosphere was in full swing🎄 The beautiful Christmas market held at Potsdamer Platz✨ There were colorful lights, many stalls, and people lined up. A day where I ate currywurst, ate German sausages, and enjoyed the tree to my heart's content🎄 #GermanyTravel #FrankfurtTravel #Christmas #ChristmasAtmosphere #YearEndTravel #ChristmasMarket #PleaseWinter #Germany #PotsdamerPlatz

So splendid！Falling love with the elegant Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam!

Visiting Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam was a highlight! The palace is incredibly elegant, with stunning Rococo interiors and beautiful gardens that are perfect for a long walk. I recommend arriving early to avoid crowds, especially in the summer. Wear comfortable shoes because the park is huge and includes other sights like the New Palace and the Chinese House. Tickets for the palace sell out quickly so come early. #potsdam

What can I say about Berlin? Regularly, I’m asked what is the best place that I’ve visited? It’s a tough question. There’s so many beautiful and awesome places that I’ve been to, that it’s so hard to choose just one. But as a city destination, Berlin would be right up there near the top of the list. Why? It is a unique place that pretty much has everything. The history, the architecture, the culture and a pretty awesome lifestyle. It’s a city that doesn’t sleep, but in a cool way. There’s always something new to discover in every nook and cranny within the city. Berlin has certainly had its lows as well as its highs. The city had to endure the end of World War 2, and the destruction that followed. Afterwards, the city was cruelly split into two, where West Berlin could thrive and East Berlin was left under the influence of the Soviet Union. In 1989, that all changed. A year later, in 1990, the city and country were officially reunified once again. Everything that Berlin has been through has made it the city that it is today. Make sure you visit the museum quarter whilst in Berlin, and head to the Pergamum Museum to see the Ishtar Gate. For food, currywurst is a must. But you’ve also got to try Burgermeister. A burger chain that has converted some quirky places into Burger joints. Who’d have thought that you can chomp on a burger in a disused public toilets by the side of a motorway! #Berlin #Berlingram #Beautifulberlin #traveltheworld #travelphotography #travelvlog #germany #visitgermany #visitdeutschland #travel #traveleurope #wanderlust #wanderer

#cityplaybook My day trip to Potsdam and Brandenburg an der Havel was a perfect blend of grandeur and calm. Starting in Potsdam, I headed straight to the famous Sanssouci Park. Walking through its vast gardens, past fountains and flower beds, I explored the stunning Sanssouci Palace, once the summer residence of Frederick the Great. The palace’s rococo charm and terraced vineyards made it feel like a royal retreat frozen in time. I also stopped by the Neues Palais, with its imposing facade and detailed interiors. Later in the day, I took a regional train to Brandenburg an der Havel. Compared to Potsdam, it was peaceful and less touristy, with charming riverfronts and a lovely old town full of Gothic brick architecture. I enjoyed a slow walk along the Havel river, explored the St. Catherine’s Church, and admired the medieval city gates. This trip was a great way to dive into Prussian history while enjoying nature, lakes, and quiet streets far from the big-city buzz. Ideal for those who love architecture and relaxed riverside vibes.

#GetDiscountNotRelyingOnLuck #SansouciPalace Schloss Sanssouci or Sanssouci Palace is located in Potsdam, Germany. It is another grand and beautiful palace in Europe. It is a single-story building decorated with a dome in the middle and has pavilions on both sides. It is often called the Versailles Palace of Germany. I like that the building is yellow and has very beautiful architecture. There are stairs on the slopes to decorate the garden. There is a fountain. Taking pictures is very beautiful. It is another very impressive place to visit in Germany. If you want to visit inside, there is an entrance fee including a tour service or a self-guided tour guide service. Anyone who likes to visit palaces or is interested can go. For this trip, rent a car and drive. You can pin it according to the GPS.

#earthdayjourney The New Palace (Neues Palais) in Potsdam is a grand symbol of Prussian strength and elegance, built by King Frederick the Great after the Seven Years' War. Located at the western end of Sanssouci Park, this UNESCO World Heritage site boasts over 200 richly decorated rooms, including the dazzling Grotto Hall and Marble Hall. Unlike the more intimate Sanssouci Palace, the New Palace was designed for show—hosting royal guests and showcasing opulent architecture in Baroque and Rococo styles, complete with over 400 statues adorning its impressive façade. For travellers with sustainability in mind, the New Palace is a perfect destination to explore responsibly. It’s easily accessible by public transportation from Berlin or Potsdam, helping reduce your travel footprint. Walking through Sanssouci Park on marked trails protects the fragile environment, while visiting local cafés and shops in the area supports the community. By choosing low-impact travel methods and respecting the cultural landscape, your visit becomes not just a step into history—but a commitment to preserving it for future generations. #germany #sustainabilitytravel #newpalace #travel

The terraced vineyards, the Baroque architecture, and the endless greenery... it's not just a palace, it’s poetry made of stone and leaves. If you're in Berlin, make time for this royal getaway.

✨ My stay at the Mercure Hotel Potsdam City was marked by its excellent central location opposite the Potsdam City Palace, making it a breeze to explore historical sites like the Museum Barberini and Old Market Square. The modern rooms were clean and comfortable, though the bathrooms felt a bit tight. Staff were generally friendly, but the service lacked personal touch at check-out. Breakfast at Oscar was a highlight with an extensive buffet, and the view from higher floors is spectacular. However, the limited elevators and parking issues slightly detracted from the experience. Overall, it's a solid choice for those seeking a functional base in Potsdam with good amenities, though those looking for a more personalized hotel experience might want to consider other options.

#DecemberTravelSupportEvent #GermanyTravel #PlacesToVisitInGermany #GermanyTravelDestination I visited Sanssouci Palace on the outskirts of Berlin. I heard it was a place that appeared in The Queen of Tears? I didn't know ꉂꉂ(ᵔᗜᵔ*). It was leisurely and nice. It was nice to look at because the symmetry was well-achieved.

It was an honor to see works by Egon Schiele, my personal favorite artist, that I had never seen before. As expected, his skills are top-notch. The museum was well-organized and comfortable overall.
