The Best Things to Do in Berlin, From Prussian Palaces to Temples to Techno | Condé Nast Traveler

"Originally built in 1699 as Sophie Charlotte’s summer residence, this massive multi-winged Baroque palace—heavily damaged in World War II and painstakingly restored—houses priceless collections (royal porcelain, silver, crown jewels, and 18th-century French paintings) and reconstructed rooms featuring ornate plasterwork, gilding, and frescoes; the highlight for me is the formal French- and English-style gardens, with orderly hedges, fountains, ponds, and tree-lined gravel paths." - Liz Humphreys, Krystin Arneson
