When you're ready to escape from all that exhausting sightseeing, stretch out in the sun at Schwielowsee. Bring some nibbles and a good book ... Whatever helps you unwind!

Schwielowsee is an ideal place to begin exploring Berlin. This body of water comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Allow time for other sights like Sanssouci Palace, Potsdam's Brandenburg Gate, and Museum Barberini to really enjoy what the area has to offer.
