Beautiful city
I have been to Dresden twice now and I really like this city! The architecture is amazing, interesting museums as well as great nightlife and a fantastic surrounding landscape make a visit to Dresden absolutely worthwhile!

Hi,
We are visiting Dreseden from June 14th to 18th with a 2.5 year old daughter.
1)She is bit sensitive to dairy and prefers to drink soy milk. Is it easily available in grocery stores?
2)I intend to buy bread or bread from grocery store for her, are all the labels only in English?
3)We want to stay in a room with small kitchenette. Are there are any suggestions?
4)Is it possible to visit Prague for a day from Dresden?
thanks
Hi...i'm not from Germany and i dont live in Dresden, but i've been to Germany many times. regarding soy milk i am sure you will find in big supermarkets like e verywhere else...however regarding the labels, forget it that you will find them in english, they will only be in German! Regarding Prague, its very easy to travel from dresden to Prague. by bus it takes 2 hours 20 minutes...try www.touring.de (when choosing destination country, Czech republich is Tschechien in German). good luck and dont worry too much. enjoy dresden and prague
1) Sojamilch in German
It is available. Certainly in the bigger supermarkets. Not sure about the discounters.
2) Bread from the grocery? Possible, but the quality at bakeries is much better. Most supermarkets have an extra bakery anyway.
> are all the labels only in English?
You mean in German - or? With very few exceptions: yes
3) e.g. with http://www.hrs.com
you can search for rooms with a kitchenette
-> extended search -> facilities at hotel and in room -> room facilities -> kitchenette
Not that common in Germany. People who like this will rather rent a vacation apartment or home
4) yes

From: Dresden
To: Prague
I would recommend the train. More frequent. The route is more scenic. More space for your daughter.
1) yes, it is available in many groceries. Not in discounters. Your best bet is the centrally located (not least expensive, but excellent quality) grocery in the basement of the Karstadt department store (Prager Strasse/city centre)
2) Why in the grocery store? But again, the grocery in the Karstadt department store mentioned above has a very good organic food section where they also sell all sorts of bread.
3) Try www.dresden.de and look for a "ferienwohnung". It's your best option for 4 nights and they come with a kitchen(ette).
4) Very easy. As the previous poster said, train is the best choice. I did that numerous times.
<<<soy milk. Is it easily available<<< in most supermarket chains like Kaiser`s or Edeka they sell soy milk.
>>>are all the labels only in English<<< the ingredients of food in supermarkets mostly is written in several languages.

Since Western cars were not available in the Eastern Europe, local industry was producing its own vehicles. Most were derived from the dates Western designs, but GDR had two car factories that were making independently developed vehicles.
The more "luxurious" was Wartburg, but the most famous one was the Trabant. It had a non-rusting plastic body, two-stroke engine (!) and was extremely spatan and noisy. Both had very dated and somewhat ungainly designs. After the fall of socialism, Trabants have acheived a bit of a cult status, and many are still found on the streets of Eastern Europe, attesting to their durability.
Almost immediately after reunification, VW purchased the factories to make VW Polo there.
The stage door is now in the administration building, not in the opera house itself.
So this is where you might want to loiter around after the performance if you are an autograph collector, or just a fan, in hopes that your favorite singers will come out this way.
(No guarantee of that, though, because they might go to the canteen for a drink after the show, or leave by another exit.)
PLANWIRTSCHAFT - It´s a nice bar in Neustadt. Here you can enjoy delicous food and the athmosphere of GDR times.
Doreen, Richie and me had one of our meetings there. We enjoyed the beer there...;)
and it´s own of the bars where you can find a delicous brunch on sunday. students look
The Pulverturm is located at the place where the Powder Tower once stood. This tower was built in 1565, when the city walls were completed.
In 1744 the tower was detroyed; only some outer walls remained partly.
In 1763 the construction of the so-called Coselpalais started.
Today, besides the street terras, the restaurant has 4 basement, preserving the remaining parts of the previous buildings.
The restaurant serves Saxonian food, for instance suckling pig and traditional German dishes.
There's also a wine room offering many Saxonian wines fresh cheeses.
