Dresden can be easily reached from Berlin. Baroque historical monuments, splendid promenades, museums of world rank, Dresden is worth an excursion.
Dresden with its brilliant baroque buildings is also named the Florence of the north. The Dresdner Zwinger houses the Gemaeldegalerie with its rich treasure of paintings. The Frauenkirche, the greatest Protestant dome-shaped building, destroyed in the 2nd World War has been rebuilt. A visit of the Semper Opera House promises a great musical enjoyment.
