Belvedere on the Pfingstberg

The Belvedere on the Pfingstberg is yet another Potsdam palace built by yet another German king in the 1900's but unfortunately never finished. Amazing views from the top looking out towards Berlin.

We nearly didn't manage to get on the train to come back to Braunschweig as it was absolutely packed full of young revellers on their way to a Blossom Festival in Werder, the next station from Potsdam.  We had to push our way on and force a path for ourselves up to first class and they were even spilling into first class.

The weather has been so gorgeous the last few days - almost in the mid twenties.  Such a contrast to last week when it was around 6-8 degrees!
