Pillnitz was built in Chinese style. Two Chinese palaces are connected by another palaсe that looks more austere. One of two Chinese palaces is also water palace. Its steps go straight down to the Elbe. There you can also see how much water rose in the river in different years.

By the way, you can also enjoy exotic plants in the center of Dresden, in the
botanical garden.
There are several museums in Pillnitz, but in winter and im the
beginning of spring they are closed. So in winter time you can walk around and enjoy outside sights.

My second visit in Pillnitz was in the beginning of autumn.
In winter Pillnitz can seem strict and disolate. But in a sunny September day it is bright, exotic and very friendly.
Pillnitz is surrounded by hills and vineyards.
Have a nice walk!
