Dresden’s Christmas market history goes back to 1434 according to Dresden's official website. This market has preserved its distinctive character despite a few changes. The world’s largest Erzgebirge step pyramid, which made its way into the Guinness Book of World Records in 1999, is 14.62 meters tall and can be seen far and wide. More than 2.5 million people visit the romantic Altmarkt Square every year.
We will visit Bastei Bridge for the first part of the day so you don't miss out on one of the best highlights of this region. After that, we will head to Dresden and explore the Christmas market.

However, if you would like to explore the market a little more we can change the itinerary based on how you feel after we get to Chritmas market.
