After lunch the day that we were in Dresden, we went to check out Zwinger which is one of Dresden's landmarks. It is a complex of Baroque buildings built by Augustus the Strong (he had many things in the area built). The complex was built in the 1700s and now has a sculpture "museum" and a porcelain collection. The monarchs at the time really liked their porcelain. :) We had fun wandering around the complex as the afternoon light was amazing (and it was so nice to have warm sunny weather).
