70 SUNDAY EXPRESS August 26, 2012 TRAVEL A Germany you BALTIC CITY : Rostock in the north involve some shopping on the famous Merchants’ Bridge. This cobbled street of ornate and picturesque shops is built upon the river, with the shopowners still living above their premises. Erfurt’s answer to Florence’s Ponte Vecchio offers everything from goldsmiths, to artworks, to clothing, to clocks and is a delightful place to while away an hour or two. Leaving pretty Erfurt behind, I take the train and head to Potsdam, an amazing place on Berlin’s doorstep. It has been a Unesco Cultural Heritage Centre since 1990 and has everything from grand palaces and lovely parks to beautiful waterways. If you are interested in history, there is enough here to keep you busy for years. Again, this is a place that both suffered from and profited by the Cold War. The grand houses and boulevards were left to peel and decay only because the politicians of the GDR couldn’t afford to demolish them to build a grand vision in modernist concrete. And that’s lucky for us, for today they are now restored, stunningly beautiful and fiendishly expensive. Potsdam is the place to live for rich Berliners who are tired of the nightlife and want to bring up families. Frederick the Great, born in 1712, was the man who made Prussia the power that it was, and when he wasn’t FROM PREVIOUS PAGE planning invasions of his neighbours, he enjoyed building palaces. And Frederick certainly didn’t believe in ‘less is more’. The most famous is the Palace of Sanssouci, whose fountains and terraces greet you as you enter the lovely Sanssouci Park. Walking or cycling the length of this beautiful park will take you past the Orangery and the Chinese House on your way to the New Palace, an imposing grand pile which Frederick built to house his guests. Sixty rooms of it are playing host to the Friederisiko exhibition until the end of October, which tells the story of this rather strange, unhappy man. A MORE lighthearted way to see the city is to take to the water. Huckleberry’s may not sound a very German name, but if you take one of their rafts you can float down the Havel River and look at the many palaces and historic houses on the banks. You can also sail right under the Glienicke Bridge where spies were swapped during the Cold War era, and ponder over the many people who lost their lives trying to swim the short distance across the river, from one bank to the other, from imprisonment to freedom. Beach holidays and Germany are words that are not often heard together but a train trip north from Berlin takes you to the beautiful Baltic coastline. White sands, a sparkling sea and picturesque seaside towns are waiting to welcome you. Half-an-hour from the historic city of Rostock is the charming little town of Warnemunde, and dominating the main beach there is the Hotel Neptun. From the outside this five-star hotel could be any 1970s block, but it has an interesting history. Back in the GDR days, only those with connections could ever hope of getting a room there. It played host to may important guests from the Soviet bloc, as well as being renowned for being well wired up by the Stasi on their constant hunt for secrets. Those days have long gone and it is now just a lovely hotel, with fantastic food and a famous health spa. But sitting on the balcony, looking out to sea, it is hard not to wonder who once REGAL SPLENDOUR: The majestic Palace of Sanssouci was built by Frederick the Great.
