Dresden, Germany

Photography Tour in Dresden

The best photos of Dresden aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Dresden rose from the ashes of World War II to reclaim its title as the Florence of the Elbe, with meticulously rebuilt Baroque palaces, world-class art collections, and a dramatic riverside setting.

Top Photography Tour Spots

•Frauenkirche — a Baroque Lutheran church painstakingly rebuilt after WWII destruction, with a massive stone dome and a viewing platform offering city panoramas
•Brühl Terrace — known as the Balcony of Europe, a grand riverside promenade above the Elbe with views of the Neustadt and the Augustusbrücke

Hidden Photography Tour Gems

•Kunsthofpassage — a series of themed courtyards in the Neustadt, including the famous 'singing drain pipes' building that plays music when it rains
•Pfunds Molkerei — the world's most beautiful dairy shop, covered floor to ceiling in hand-painted Villeroy and Boch tiles since 1880
