This was definitely a very popular place of the locals. There were a lot of people walking and rode a bike here, people were walking their dogs, jogging and doing other physical activities. A miniature train ran here. In addition to many smaller and larger paths, there were lakes, fountains (the Mosaic Fountain was very beautiful), flower gardens, restaurants and even a small theater in the style of ancient Greece. There was also a zoo and a botanical garden.
The Grosse garten is really big. You could easily spend an entire day here.

This beautiful park is about 2 square km. It has restaurant, mini golf, many seating, water features.
In the middle the palace. Here you can walk for hours or just relax.
There is also a park railway with which you can wonderfully explore the park.

The gardens are very extensive and the miniature railway is worth a ride. You could easily spend an entire day here, and the train makes it easier to get around (assuming that you visit on a day when it is running).

We walked from the city centre and it was well worth it. It covers a huge area and you can walk through the trees. The English garden was beautiful and so colourful in May.
Lots of seats and you could really spend a day there.
We were lucky to visit on a Friday with a local market.

As we walked around the Dresden historic and artistic areas, we were amazed and were in awe of the area. We had been in Berlin prior to our visit to Dresden and we will plan to spend more time in Dresden the next time.

We started our first day in Dresden by hopping off the tour bus and walking through this garden. The layout of the long alleyways is beautiful, and there is also a kind of woody part as well. Delightful to see so many young children and also so many bikers (I mean bicyclists). Palace very nice, with some concerts and exhibits.

We entered the park from the side which is further from town centre. Lot of people were jogging and running there and all I could do was to envy them. Next time I'm bringing my running gear as well. The area is very large and everyone can choose the aktivity. You can do sports - in-lining, cycling, running, walking; enjoy the plants - ie. dahlia collection; you can have a picnic; we rented a boat for 30 minutes and it was quite fun. If you are tired of walking you can go by the train on light railway. There are infinite options for family activities. Just please be respectful and don't leave any of your trash there. The park is very well maintained.
The food options in the park are limited and quite pricey so we chose to bring our own food.

We hire some bikes and rode though this massive park. You truly feel like you have the park to yourself it is that big. The miniature railway looked amazing and those with children will adore this. If you like open spaces this is a great place to visit.

We enjoyed a lovely walk through this park in the autumn. There is a palace that you can see from outside and a water feature. An easy walk from the city centre.
