As a service to any overheated tourists who might stumble across my otherwise personal blog, I present Eilean's Hitzewelle Guide to Dresden, which she was good enough to send to me before I left.
The Semperoper is worth a visit anyway but really good air con
The Zwinger has a nice wee park with a pond round the back of the building on the Ost allée which was nice and shady
Grünes Gewölbe - go admire the jewels - 10E worth of fab air con
Jeff Wall photography exhibition - Kunsthalle in Lipsiusbau - wasn't that impressed by the photography but fab air con
Grosser Garten - good for shade - was a bit further out than I expected - did a lot of walking in the heat to get there.
I'm sure you'll like Dresden - I really enjoyed it and 2 days were not enough.
If you fancy a bit of contemporary ballet the Tänzerische Seranade "Die vier Jahreszeiten" was great and in a lovely setting - outside in the Zwinger and not too expensive
Also liked l'Art de Vie Resto near the Societätstheater in Neustadt - had dinner there but they looked like a good option for breakfast as is X-fresh in the Altmark Galerie.
