[Florence on the Elbe] Dresden🇩🇪

Dresden🇩🇪 is located in the eastern part of Germany, about 30km from the border with the Czech Republic. In the 19th century, it flourished as the capital of the Kingdom of Saxony, and is said to be the hometown of Meissen, a luxury porcelain that is also popular in Japan✨ Photos 1 and 2 are of the Zwinger Palace. It seems to have been expanded, and each building in the palace has a structure that gives a sense of history. The courtyard is beautiful✨ Also, as it is called the Florence of the Elbe River, the view from the riverside is beautiful! It is recommended as it has its own beauty in the evening and at night🌃✨ 📍Zwinger Palace (Zwinger) Location: Semperbau am Zwinger Theaterplatz 2, Dresden #Dresden #Germany
