Pfunds Molkerei, der schönste Milchladen der Welt!
Die Frauenkirche, wieder aufgebaut, ein Wunder.
Semperoper von innen ansehen, unbedingt Führung buchen.
Das Grüne Gewölbe ist ein Schatzkammer-Traum.
Abends auf der Brühlschen Terrasse, der Balkon Europas.
Pfunds Molkerei, der schönste Milchladen der Welt laut Guinness.
Die Frauenkirche, wieder aufgebaut aus den Trümmern, berührt mich jedes Mal.
