During our recent stay in Dresden we had decided to stay at a hotel right in the center of the old town. This was a good decision but we were determined to take an afternoon to stroll through the Neustadt. We were very glad that we did. It was a nice day and the walk across the bridge and stroll...

What a great area, great bars, great shops, great buildings. I'm glad this part didn't get bombed during the war.

TONS of graffiti, few punks, new age stores, and eclectic mix of retailers a bit hippie. at the North end is a very nice park, wear comfortable shoes. The connection between the Neustadt and the river also has a nice walk with lots... More
