• Paths only, no ball games, since the park rules ban leaving the paths, ball games, skates and boating, so leave the football at home
• Open 8am until dusk every day, with visitor centers at the Historic Windmill (closed Mondays) and the New Palace (closed Tuesdays)
• Bring your own water, since none of the fountains carry drinking water and the main avenue alone runs over 2 kilometers

Sanssouci Park covers nearly 300 hectares around Frederick the Great's palace, with terraced vineyard steps, a large central fountain and more than 1,000 sculptures along a main avenue over 2 kilometers long. Kids climb the terrace stairs, hunt for statues and find the historic windmill.

Rules keep everyone on the paths with no ball games, so it suits walkers more than kids who need a lawn to run.
