I spent two days in Dresden in August 2005, but unfortunately it rained on both days. Well, this fact didn't stop me from visiting various sights in the Historic Centre of Dresden. During WWII nearly all of Dresden was destroyed and when I was there the Frauenkirche "Our Lady's Church" was completely restaurated alreay, but we weren't allowed to enter the interior. So we went to the "Unterkirche" ("underchurch"), some kind of a cellar room where we could listen a lady who told us about the churches history. My boyfriend and me were allowed to visit some kind of hidden grottoes which usually are closed for tourists, but the young girl who held the speech was so kind to let us in there to take some photos. ;-) Besides this church you also should visit the Zwinger, a gallery/museum, and Yenidze, a very interesting building in Turkish/Oriental style built in 1906.
