I had no preconceptions about Dresden, I knew a lot of effort had gone into rebuilding after the devastation of the war, I was expecting lots of nice old buildings and a fun weekend in general.

I knew nothing of the colourful, diverse, politically charged suburb of Neustadt. Thanks to the awesome organisational skills of my travel companion (who knew Dresden already) we were staying right in the heart of Neustadt. Street art everywhere I turned.

There are a LOT of photos. Given that I’m doing these posts retrospectively and trying to quickly get up to 2016 I’m just going to post them all for now. Maybe I can come back to this post and categorise them in some way to break them down into multiple posts. Needless to say, I loved it in Neustadt. Amazing!
