Germany, especially with its dense Turkish population, closed and cold weather, architecture, and among other European countries, was always at the top of my list of places to visit.. However, when you come to the Czech Republic and are at such a close distance, it would not be possible to return without seeing Dresden, which is known as the Florence of the region.. Only 10 km from Dresden, to the north, the palace was designed as a hunting lodge in the castle of the same name in the 16th century.. Baroque architecture and interior decoration with the representation of special tastes fascinate the visitors; The perfectly landscaped park of the palace opens the doors to the world of dreams for those who want to take a walk.
Today, the palace, which regularly hosts a sculptor symposium every two years, is also important because many of the famous German children’s fairy tales take place in their homeland.. The famous route, which the Germans call the fairy tale road, also stops by Moritzburg.. Before going to fairy tales such as Hansel and Gretel and the Bremen Town Musicians, you can witness the experiences of Cinderella in this palace.
Also, the most important antlers of the world are exhibited in this palace.. Mutant deer antlers, each weighing at least 20 kilograms, and nearly 60 antlers, which are rare in the world, can be seen in the exhibition halls.. Again, Japanese and Chinese porcelain and hunting weapons await their visitors in magnificent rooms.
After taking a glance at the beautiful sculptures and garden landscape around the Moritzburg Water Palace, we return to the bus and continue our journey to Dresden in order not to be affected by the cold much more. waiting for it to start. There is a distance of approximately 10 km between Dresden and the palace.
Those who say that wherever you go in Dresden, the Florence of the north, you will encounter fine arts, they are not wrong.. This city on the banks of the Elbe River is rightly called the Florence of the Elbe.. Like the famous metropolis of Italy, Dresden hosts many world-class collections of works of art
, while a significant number of foreign tourists visit the city every year just to see the works of art.
II. While countless magnificent baroque structures that survived until World War II, carry the glory and splendor of the August Strong period; The city was bombed by the American and Royal Air Forces on February 13-15, 1945, and there was no stone left.. In the inhuman bombardment made to facilitate the advance of the Russian troops in the east and to strike another blow against the Germans, Dresden was burned for days with the phosphorus bomb used almost for the first time in the world. Although it was destroyed as a result of the war, the Germans took care of this city and its assets and in a very short period of time, they re-created the city by being faithful to the past.. Every person who steps into Dresden today thinks the buildings belong to centuries ago.. However, these buildings were built in the very recent past, faithful to their originals.. Despite this, its art galleries, sculptures and architecture bear no trace of the war.
We are walking in the rain in the city square, which lost more than twice the total of those who lost their lives in the two-day bombing with the atomic bombing of Japan.. Although it seems calm and quiet, the city is the most important transportation corridor of the region.. Dresden is an important transit point on the south axis of Berlin, with its connection to Germany and the Czech Republic.. We breathe the air by walking behind the palace where Auguste invited the best-known architects, composers and musicians of Italy and Austria with the aim of making his city “Florence of the North”.. The road is long, there are new places to see.
