Die größte Sehenswürdigkeit, die es gibt, ist die Welt - sieh sie dir an.

(Zitat von Kurt Tucholsky)

 

Blick von der Bastei (305 m ü. NHN) auf die Elbe und einen Wartturm. Die Bastei ist eine Felsformation mit Aussichtsplattform in der Sächsischen Schweiz zwischen dem Kurort Rathen und Stadt Wehlen. Sie zählt zu den meistbesuchten Touristenattraktionen der Sächsischen Schweiz. Von der Bastei fällt das schmale Felsriff über 194 m steil zur Elbe ab. Sie bietet eine weite Aussicht ins Elbtal und über das Elbsandsteingebirge.

The biggest attraction that exists, is the world - look at her.

(Quote by Kurt Tucholsky)

 

View from the Bastei on the Elbe and the Wartturm rocks . The Bastei is a rock formation towering 194 metres above the Elbe River in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains of Germany. Reaching a height of 305 metres above sea level, the jagged rocks of the Bastei were formed by water erosion over one million years ago. They are situated near Rathen, not far from Pirna southeast of the city of Dresden and are the major landmark of the Saxon Switzerland National Park.
