Please be careful if you walk through the old city, there are no road signs and traffic lights. If you want to cross a street you must look that there comes no car. Also if you cross a street with traffic lights after your visit in the old city. If you walk through the day in the old city and comes out of the old city consitsts the danger to across the street with red traffic lights. Really. I speak from my own experience. :(
Why no traffic lights and road signs? The old city is under protection of historical monuments, because it is forbidden to do it in the old city. Leave a Comment

 Nice scenery but watch
your feet! by grishaV1
Walking along one night Alaunstrasse my companion slips and nearly falls, "***!" he says spontaneously. And *** indeed it was, dog ***. Avoid it, watch your feet, especially at night. Besides not wanting it on your shoes, falling down into it would be really awful. Leave a Comment

Another "after dark" warning about the tunnels of the bahnhof, and especially the main rarilroad station in Dresden. Some certain kinds of people hang out, some druggies and things in the many tunnels, not always are they giving you a problem but its better to be cautious. Just keep walking and they leave you alone if they ask for money or something. Itýs the best thing to do, to be aggressive towards them first is only asking for trouble.
Along Konigstrasse I think is the name, inside the tunnels you most likely will find skateboarding teens and others who hang out. They can be some aggressive whether you say something to them or not, so itýs not a good place to be alone in or just a few. Just ignore and keep walking.This is not all youths or druggies or people hanging out in bahnhofs, of course. Just be aware anyway, some just wish a polite respect you would show any one then you are usually fine. Leave a Comment

Itýs especially an "after-dark" or "late night" warning about bahnhof bathrooms in Dresden, and really could be also for Berlin or other big German cities as well. You will notice that a certain kinds of men hang out there. Letýs just say they are looking for a few minutes of fun.
I would say avoid the bathrooms all together if you can, or go in do your business and leave (well, if its why you are there and not the other reason haha!). Be aware that you might see something you didnýt wish to. Yet know also this is not all of "us", this is a particular group most of the times, and not necessarily "gays". If you have children, certainly, donýt send them in alone, avoid it all together if possible. Leave a Comment

I had trouble cashing my Citibank American Express Traveler checks in Dresden. I was able to cash them in Berlin, but the woman in Dresden said that they didn't match any of the pictures in her book so she wasn't able to take them. Be prepared to use some cash, just in case. Leave a Comment

This isn't a danger, but it is sound advice: Be sure to bring plenty of Euro with you. I was surprised at how often vendors didn't take credit cards and getting to the train station to exchange cash can be out of the way and inconvenient.
