Charlottenburg Palace Review

Despite the renovation works, the publicly accessible garden is an oasis in the middle of a busy city. The well maintained garden makes walking through and around the park a pleasant experience. The park can get busy especially during a summer evening but either walking or cycling your time here would be well spent. Highly recommended for a night stroll.

First visit to Berlin to visit the Boletenbergs, the Parliament House, followed the Bodhi Tree down the street to the Charlotteburg Palace. Impressed: Charlotte Fort Palace was built like Versailles, the former Prussian King Frederick I ten minutes from Versailles, and built this summer palace for his wife Sophie Charlotte. The courtyard center is the portrait of William, the Elector of Brandenburg, by Andreas Schluter in 1696-97, showing his consistent military manhood. A gift from King William I of Prussia to Peter the Great of Russia in 1716, the Amber House, with more than six tons of amber and precious jewels, was originally built in the Charlotteburg Palace.

Charlotteburg Palace is actually a large garden open to the public. The area inside is very large, but in addition to visiting the garden, in fact, the Charlotteburg Palace block outside is also very worth visiting. First of all, although this block is close to the palace, it has no general popular tourist attractions. noisy, Very quiet, the whole neighborhood is tree-lined, the houses on both sides are very characteristic of European houses, walking in it is very comfortable, walking in the afternoon sun is more a pleasure.

This magnificent baroque palace, built in the eighteenth century, is the largest existing palace in Berlin and a historical witness to the Prussian Kingdom. It was originally the summer palace of Frederick I, named after his queen, and experienced several expansions of kings. Of course, it also experienced the damage of World War II and post-war restoration. Today, the old palace and the new wing (Neuer Flügel) are the main parts of the visit, the palace's luxury and royal collection, not to lose to other palaces. The former Palace Theatre has been converted into a prehistoric and early history museum (Museum für Vor- und Frühgeschichte), while the palace gardens with a mix of French and English styles, there are buildings such as the new palace, the viewing building, and the mausoleum.

The Charlotte Palace in Berlin is much inferior to the Charlotte Palace in Potsdam. Except for the palace at the door, there is basically nothing inside. The garden pool forest grassland is poured out of the same touch, and it is not exquisite enough. Fortunately, the palace is close to the canal around the city. The canal is about 20 kilometers long. The main waterway is 40 or 50 meters wide. The river branch is relatively narrow, and the boat berth can barely pass. The water quality is very poor in the narrower place, which can be said to be sewage. I don't know how many swans and wild ducks can swim and live. We sat in the shade of the lintel chairs, enjoying the cool breeze. Watching the various yachts and boats moored on the river.

Charlotteburg Palace, named after his wife Charlotte, the Elector of Brandenburg, is the summer palace of the Prussian king. The whole palace is not very big, but the gorgeous Rococo decoration style blinded my cat's eyes. In fact, this palace is also a copy of Versailles. Later, Frederick II built the Palace of Worry-free in Potsdam, still copying Versailles, and also named a French name: Schloss Sanssouci to reflect his most simple desire: carefree. It was for this reason that I decided to give up my plans to go to Potsdam and take my old lady to see the real Palace of Versailles, which gave me the leisurely and aimless wandering of today.
