One of Dresden's most beautiful parks, the Großer Garten has plenty on offer for nature-lovers and architecture enthusiasts alike. A visit to this landscaped wonder is like stepping into a fantasy Disneyland-styled world. A majestic Baroque summer palace, complete with a pond and courtiers' residence, stands proudly, with its crystal clear reflection staring back from the lake. Neat rows of trees, a magnificent, white, Baroque sculpture, colourful flower beds and fountains surround this palace. The numerous paths that wind their way through the ancient trees are perfect for a relaxing stroll, the lake is wonderful for rowers, while those looking to relax may like to take a ride through the grounds on the miniature train. This park also houses a zoo, botanical gardens and a large tropical greenhouse. Volkswagen has built a glass-fronted production hall in the north-western corner of this park, where visitors can watch cars being manufactured in front of their very eyes.
