Dresden is one of those recommended daytrips from Berlin or Prague. It's situated in between Berlin and Prague, so it makes sense to do a stopover for a couple of hours while taking the train to Prague. Having said that, this is going to be a short entry ;)
Since our travel day fell on Good Friday, most (if not all) of the shops along the way from the train station to the city were closed. It was a good 20 to 30 minute stroll to the river.
off to Prague! :)

| The trip planning slides on Dresden |
 |
| Practically empty. On a normal day I bet that Primark is the main attraction :) |
 |
| That could be the Kreuzkirche, a Lutheran church |
 |
| The Zwinger Palace should be the green-roofed building in the background |
 |
| Not too sure what building this is |
 |
| Semperoper - opera house, concert hall, ballet |
 |
| Dresden Cathedral and Dresden Castle |
 |
| Dresden Cathedral (Katholische Hofkirche) |
 |
| Apparently the Dresden Elbe Valley is removed from the World Heritage Site due to "the building of a four-lane bridge". That's too bad. |
 |
| Guess which Ninja Turtle is not in the list? Hehehe... kidding! :) |
 |
| Dresden Academy of Fine Arts |
 |
| Bruhl's Terrace (on the left) overlooking the Elbe River |
 |
| I could be wrong, but this could be Dresden State Art Collections |
 |
| Frauenkirche - a Lutheran church, with the statue of Martin Luther, a reformer and theologian |
off to Prague! :)
