Dresden

Step into a phoenix-risen masterpiece in Dresden, the “Florence on the Elbe,” where the reconstructed Frauenkirche—rebuilt stone by stone after wartime destruction—glows with its iconic dome over the historic Altstadt, the Zwinger Palace’s lavish baroque pavilions house world-class collections including Raphael’s Sistine Madonna, and the Semperoper’s elegant neo-Renaissance façade hosts opera and ballet against the backdrop of the shimmering Elbe River.

Wander the Brühlsche Terrasse promenade for sweeping river views and sunset panoramas, explore the Royal Palace’s Green Vault with its dazzling treasure chambers of jewels and gold, stroll the rebuilt Neumarkt square lined with pastel baroque façades, or take a scenic paddle-steamer cruise past vineyards and Elbe castles—all in a city that masterfully revived its pre-war splendor while embracing modern creativity and warm Saxon hospitality.

Savor hearty Sauerbraten with red cabbage, Eierschecke cheesecake, crisp Radeberger beer, and delicate Meissen porcelain coffee amid lively Christmas markets, riverside cafés, and the unmistakable pride of a city that rose from ashes to reclaim its title as one of Europe’s most beautiful.

Dresden isn’t just a destination—it’s a testament to beauty reborn, baroque brilliance, and timeless romance—plan your Dresden escape today!
