Your trip to charming and cozy Dresden will be marked with very warm memories. One day is quite enough to explore the historical center of the city.

When you are in Dresden, first of all, visit Dresdner Zwinger. Its construction began in XVIII century and continued for 100 years. The idea of this huge garden and park complex was inspired by the impressions of Versailles and, in many ways, it turned out to be not inferior to its beauty.

It houses the Museum of Porcelain, the Gallery of Old Masters, the Royal Cabinet of Mathematical and Physical Instruments.

The entrance to the park is free and €10 for the museums. 

Dresden also is home to the famous Albertinum Art Museum. In addition to the paintings, it has also a collection of statues.

The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. By the way, the Gallery of Old Masters (with same working schedule) has a unique collection that was assembled stating from Renaissance period and miraculously saved from bombing.

You can also look into the Residence Castle of Dresden (Residenzschloss) with many interesting halls and the Observation Tower.

Opening hours are from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day except Tuesday.

The Bruhl Terrace is worth your attention as well, if you are visiting Dresden. It stretches along the Elbe for 500 meters and is associated with lots of city legends.

The largest German Protestant church, Frauenkirche, is also in Dresden. By now, it has been completely restored after the World War II, and is open on working days from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. You can also visit Hofkirche (open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.), the main Catholic church of the city and the former court cathedral.

Azzi-Ek is the attraction that cannot be called a landmark, as it is an ordinary intersection of the two streets:Görlitzer Straße и Louisenstraße. However, it is not quite ordinary, as it was chosen by hundreds of local citizens to hang out here until morning, socializing, having fun and drinking beer.

There are also the Napoleon Stone (in the square near the Marcolinipalais Castle) and the oldest mailbox in Europe located on the embankment of the river Else.

One of the most beautiful dairy stores in the world, Molkerei Pfund is also located in Dresden. It offers excellent products and resembles a piece of art, itself. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. In short, I can say, that one can fall in love with Dresden at first sight.
