Dresden with Seema Prakash
Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on July 21, 2025.
Dresden's bewitching Baroque architecture and phoenix-from-the-ashes history captured the heart of Seema Prakash when she first visited the city in 2009. She decided then and there to move from her native India to "Florence on the Elbe." Now a local guide, Seema joins us for a tour of Dresden starting in the beautifully reconstructed Old Town. After admiring the fairy-tale treasures of Zwinger Palace, we cross the river into edgy, proudly countercultural Neustadt. To round out our adventure, we day-trip to nearby Saxon Switzerland National Park to hike beneath towering sandstone cliffs.
