bad schandau - the gate to saxon switzerland

our next stop at our new year's trip to saxony was the spa city of bad schandau at elbe river (labe in czech language) in the saxon switzerland
we made our first experience with airbnb and yes, we will probably use this accommodation option more often as it is nice to have such a direct contact to locals who can tell a lot about the area and sightseeing highlights. of course, the 2nd part can google even better :-)

 ostrau is well located for the easy hiking tours to falkenstein rock (left) and the schrammsteine area (left)

the 100+ years old historic elevator is a landmark of bad schandau (since 1905)
