Sanssouci Park, Royal park in Potsdam, Germany
The park extends across 300 hectares featuring a central fountain, terraced vineyards, and multiple palaces connected by a 2.5-kilometer-long main avenue.
Frederick the Great established this garden complex in 1745, incorporating both French-style pleasure gardens and fruit cultivation areas with numerous flowering plants.
The park contains the Picture Gallery, Chinese Tea House, Roman Baths, and Dragon House, representing different architectural styles from multiple European periods.
Visitors can enter the park grounds daily from 8 AM until sunset through multiple entrances, with parking areas located near the Historic Windmill.
A team of 60 gardeners maintains over 230,000 plants that are replanted twice yearly in the parterre beneath Sanssouci Palace.
