Walk to the Fürstenzug mural. Position yourself where the morning sun hits the long porcelain tiles, turning the parade of Saxon rulers gold. The light starts around 15:30 on this date, so arrive well before to find the best angle.
15:45
Head to LadenCafé aha for a hearty vegetarian or vegan breakfast. It is just a short walk from the mural and opens right as the morning rush begins. Enjoy free-trade tea or coffee in a comfortable, family-friendly setting.

Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber Dresden
Finish the experience at the Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber Dresden. It is a quiet spot to reflect on the morning light and the city's rich cultural history.
