A pagoda in the park
The Drachenhaus, the dragon house, is high in Sanssouci Park, on Maulbeerallee, near the historic windmill. It was built in 1770 as a winegrower's dwelling and was inspired by the Ta-Ho pagoda in Canton: it has dragons on the corners of the roofs. Today it is a café and restaurant, with two historic rooms and three sunny terraces.
What to order
Cakes and pastries, coffees and seasonal cooking with mostly regional produce, partly organic, and German and international wines. It is the natural mid-morning or mid-afternoon stop on a walk through the park.
