If you have a bit of spare time and you’re happy to travel 20 miles, take a look at Potsdam. This happening destination offers up plenty to see and do. Among your first stops here should be Sanssouci Palace, Babelsberg Film Park and Potsdam’s Brandenburg Gate. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Bad Saarow, 30 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Scharmuetzelsee. (But we’d also recommend Saarow Therme and Irrlandia.)
