Dresden: the Biggest Hidden Gem City in Europe

Speaking of travel destinations in Europe, we can easily come up with a list of ten to twenty European cities, but most of our lists would not contain this name: Dresden. Torn and burnt to ashes during WWII, Dresden has since undergone a series of reconstruction, under which I genuinely felt the phoenix has reborn. The entire city area, despite small, had incredibly intricate architecture and decorations. It has a lot of classical/baroque influenced architectural details, to a point it doesn’t feel so much like a typical German city like Cologne/Stuttgart/Munich but England/Paris. Every corner feels like a photography material, but too bad, it was rainy all day during my visit. Highly recommending one to throw Dresden to their to-visit list, even just for a day trip. #europetrip #dresden #travel #solotrip #hiddengem

Discover Dresden’s Iconic Gems & Riverside Charm 🚶♂️🕍🧀🌭 Get ready to explore Dresden’s must-see spots, from magical river strolls to architectural marvels, historic statues, and a dairy shop so gorgeous it’s world-famous! Start your day wandering the Elbe riverside—the best way to soak up the city’s historic skyline and get those classic bridge shots. Next, visit Zwinger (Sophienstraße, 01067 Dresden) between 6:00–21:00 for Insta-worthy palace gardens and baroque treasures. Then, admire the Frauenkirche Dresden (Neumarkt, 01067 Dresden, open 10:00–11:30 & 13:00–17:30) with its soaring stone dome—snap your wide-angle shot from Neumarkt square for max wow! Head across to the “Golden Rider” statue (Neustädter Markt 14, 01097 Dresden, open all day). Early morning light or just after sunset make for the most magical photos of this gleaming landmark. A true Dresden highlight: Molkerei Pfund (Bautzner Straße 79, 01099 Dresden, open 10:00–18:00 Mon–Sat). Don’t miss trying fresh milk and artisanal cheeses—plus, original skincare and soap make perfect souvenirs! Refuel with authentic German sausage from a street vendor for a tasty local tradition. Personal tip: Many stores close Sundays—including Molkerei Pfund! Plan weekend shopping accordingly. #Dresden #CityWalks #PhotoSpots #FoodLover #TravelTips
