Prague

Prague October 25-27 
Prague (or Praha in Czech) is overwhelming. It is so rich in history and monuments, sites and sounds. Fortunately, it's a small city so we were able to explore slowly and revisit our favorite places.  

Prague's astrological clock - and the only one that still works

View from the clock tower of city hall

Beneath the bridge - I really like the stonework

Detail on the Charles Bridge 
Several monuments are named after Charles IV as he was a huge patron of the arts and sciences

Layers

St. Vitus Cathedral inside the walls of Prague Castle

March of the penguins

SVEJK - the good soldier- is everywhere in Prague and often advertising Pilsner Urquel (a good beer)

A precarious pose

Again St. Vitus Cathedral

View from atop a tower of St. Vitus

Walking down the windy stairs of the tower

Prague National Theater at night - I like the tram cross-wires

Along the Vltava River with Charles Bridge in the background

Inside the Jubilee Synagogue
