Prague is a place I have come to know quite well as my travels to this enchanting city began in 2010. I always find something new to enjoy and experience when I visit Prague that each time I go feels like my first.
The great thing about Prague is you can do and see as little as you want without losing a moment of the charm and ambiance it has to offer. But, if you see anything, if you experience anything, if you DO ANYTHING in this city, may it be the Charles Bridge. Situated in the heart of Prague, The Charles Bridge hosts a plethora of street performers, little shops and gorgeous Gothic statues to admire.
Across the bridge, you’ll find the Prague Castle at the top of the hill. Going to the top of the tower in the castle will reward you with a majestic view over the city.
And when you come back down, you are rewarded with memorable gold coin 🙂 Not worth anything but it’s a nice momento nonetheless.
Walking into the city offers its own splendid sites such as my favorite, the Astronomical Clock. This clock tells time based on many elements such as zodiac signs, the sun and the moon. You can go to the top but I recommend having a nice Czech beer and admiring it from the square.
People from Czech are very proud of their beer. Which is a hot topic of debate now that I call myself 40% Belgian. They do have some nice beers and if you are interested in trying new beers, then I recommend the darker ones.
Tucked away from the city’s historical center is a tribute to the great John Lennon. I won’t bore you with a history lesson but on his death, the youths of Prague decided they wanted to pay tribute to the legend by creating a wall that symbolized freedom. At that time, it was a sign of rebellion and anyone would face prison if caught leaving messages on the wall. Today, anyone can leave graffiti or notes to express whatever it is you may be feeling on that day.
