Walking in DRESDEN / Germany 🇩🇪

New Town, Old Town to Central Station in Winter

Dresden is the capital of the eastern German state of Saxony where one walk is on the channel ( https://youtu.be/2-61TAIaHgo )

This time we start our tour at the Albertplatz in Dresden Neustadt.

The “Stille Wasser” fountains are resting during winter as we start walking south to the old town of Dresden. We pass the Dreikönigskirche and head to the the Elbe river.

There we see the “Japanisches Palais”, a 18th-century mansion with Japanese details and the Bilderberg Bellevue Hotel Dresden. The viewpoint “Canaletto-Blick” gives a nice view from north bank of the River Elbe the south bank, where we are heading next.

We cross the Augustus bridge and see many of the attractions of the touristic centre of Dresden, like the Fürstenzug and Frauenkirche. We walk on the Brühlsche Terasse and finally see the Semperoper and Zwinger.

The Striezelmarkt is in the process of deconstruction now in late December. This Christmas market is considered as the market of its kind which celebrated its 585th anniversary in 2019. We soon end our tour as we continue on the Prager Straße. We are heading to the main train station of Dresden, where we finish this winter walk. The tour is in many ways the reverse of our first Dresden walk.
