Is it a dream?
by AndyRG
Prague is located at the centre of Europe and so different cultures were influencing each other for centuries. At this photo you can see a nice view of Prague's Castle and Hradcany. The architectural unity is being built for more than one thousand years. The visitors always admire its romanesque and gothic monuments, renaissance treasures, baroque chapels and a great deal of sculptures. Art nouveau beauty can be seen everywhere, too. It has a big concentration of theaters, museums, concert halls, galleries, cafes and bars. This city is like a good wine, the older the wine the better the taste!
We found some great markets...

We found some great markets selling just about anything for very reasonable prices. I had to invest in a toque (Canadian for beanie/hat/lid/whatever) at one of these stalls. February in Prague was a little bit nippy.
Music at Charles Bridge
by Pieter11
When I was in Prague I was lucky to see music at Charles Bridge. From the tower at its Mala Strana side a few artists with trumpets played some kind of medieval march, which of course fits perfectly in those surroundings. The artists wear nice costumes and flags.
I saw this spectacle at 17:00 at the end of the bridge. Of course, like always, it's crowded with other tourists, but it's very nice to see so I thought it's worth it.
Wonderful piece of craftsmanship!

The astronomical clock in Old Town Square has kept its time for over 6 centuries and continues to work till this very day. The clock shows three individual sets of data. It shows the revolutions of the Sun, the revolutions of the moon, and the revolutions of the stars. The clock is divided into red and blue halves representing day and night. It's quite an amazing thing to see, considering the relatively low technology they had in those times...Loads of tourists flock to see the clock in action to strike the hour...The Procession of Apostles delights the crowd as they one by one pass by the small doors at the top of the wonderful clock. It is said that they made the creator of the clock go blind so that he would not produce another one ever again!
Art Nouveau Bridge Cechuv Most
by globetrott
Cechuv Most is the 2nd bridge to the north seen from Charles Bridge.
It combines the Jewish Quater of Prague with Letna Park.
On top of the bridge and also on the waterfront you may find great works of art nouveau.
In order to see these great sculptures, it might be the best to take a cruise.
