Potsdam 2017
Potsdam
- In Winter and Summer season
The highlights were the baroque New Palace, which was begun in 1763, after the end of the Seven Year's War, and was completed in 1769, and Sanssouci Palace. The palace was designed/built by Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff and Jan Bouman between 1745 and 1747 to fulfill King Frederick's II need for a private residence.
At the end of the day, I saw the original Brandenburg Gate on the Luisenplatz in Potsdam, which was built in 1770/1771 by Carl von Gontard and Georg Christian Unger by order of Frederick II of Prussia.
At the end of January 2017, I visited my sister in Potsdam the first
time. It was cold and icy. So we didn't go around the whole city. But
finally, I could see one part of the university, the Botanical Garden of
the university and the Park Sanssouci.

In August, I went to Potsdam again and we went to the Japanese Bonsai Garden
in Ferch. The garden is a horticultural work of art and the center of
Japanese art and culture in the state of Brandenburg. It was possible to
see gorgeous and colourful Japanese azaleas, Japanese maples, precious
Japanese flowering cherries and the up to 180 years old bonsai trees
with a following break in the tea house.
