First recorded in 1434, the Dresden Christmas Market (Striezelmarkt) will be held for the 591st time this year at the Old Market Square from Wednesday, November 26, to Wednesday, December 24, 2025. Named after "Striezel," a traditional Christmas pastry also known as Dresden's Christmas Stollen, the market is world-renowned. A beloved market for Dresden residents and visitors alike, it's one of the city's most popular Christmas markets. The Dresden Christmas Market is a must-see during any visit to Dresden during the Christmas season. At over 200 stalls, sample local specialties such as Saxon mulled wine, Lusatian grilled sausages, Dresden Stollen cake, and quakkerchen, a traditional German dish from the Vogtland region. You can also admire pyramids, smoke ovens, Christmas tree decorations, and nutcrackers crafted by artisans from the Erzgebirge Mountains. Christmas performances by up to 1,900 artists provide exciting entertainment for all ages. The walk-through candlelit arch and Ferris wheel overlooking the entire Striezelmarkt will immerse you in the Christmas atmosphere.

Dresden is a city that is worth visiting in depth. Through this city rebuilt after World War II, you can see the value of life. It is a must to visit the palace here. I bought the ticket for the group entrance on the platform in advance. Unfortunately, the tour guide was in German and I couldn&#39;t understand it at all, but it was a feast for the eyes.

Frauenkirche Dresden

老少皆宜（程世荣）

Dresden is the political, cultural and economic center of Germany, as well as a scientific research center. Dresden was the second largest city in Eastern Europe after Berlin, with tourist attractions such as the royal palace and churches.

The Baroque Treasury-Green Vault

放飞自我去游玩

We continued to visit the Green Vault Museum next door. The ticket here is 21 euros, which is a bit expensive. But this is the largest treasure house in Europe. After seeing the exquisite exhibits inside, I still think it is worth it. The exquisite exhibits inside are simply jaw-dropping, and you can take pictures inside! The crystal cups inside can be carved so exquisitely, and they are supplemented with gold and beads. The clock inside is so complicated, and it is inlaid with jewels inside and outside. The most shocking treasure of the town is called the courtier of the Mughal Empire. This model of Aurangzeb&#39;s palace is inlaid with 4909 diamonds, 160 rubies, 164 emeralds, 1 sapphire, 16 pearls and 2 relief gems. It is the imagination of the European royal family at that time about the grand occasion during the reign of Aurangzeb, the sixth emperor of the Mughal Empire in India. Several court jewelers spent 7 years to create this huge treasure of several square meters! There are countless precious treasures inside.

Bruehl Terrace

Night view

There is a famous viewing platform beside the Bella River - the Br&uuml;hl Terrace, which is suitable for walking, drinking coffee, and admiring the beautiful buildings of the city, the scenery on both sides of the Bella River, and taking pictures of the August Bridge. It is also the best place to take pictures. It is called the &quot;Balcony of Europe&quot; by the locals. On the other side of the platform is a gorgeous government building with neat rows of stairs under the building. Sitting on the stairs, you can enjoy the scenery of the old city on the other side. It is said that this is the open-air theater in Dresden, where performances are often held.

Entering the concert hall, you will be shocked by the five-story semicircular courtyard. The Roman dome, murals, golden chandeliers, and red floor seats create an unforgettable environment, which is comparable to the stunning effect of the Golden Hall in Vienna.
