Prague Casle
Exploring Prague on foot, and like I mentioned before, it was FREAKING cold!
I did not edit this picture, the weather is this gloomy.
On our way to the castle!
This is St. Nicholas Church before we reached the Prague Castle.
Very nice. In fact, we also went in to get some warmth.... hur hur hur...
isn't this cute!?
View from the castle. Equally gloomy.
Just in time to see the changing of parade in the castle.
Standing next to the guard heh heh....
To be honest, he is quite a poor thing, like a tourist attraction, everybody wants a photo with him.
but he can't scold u, can't smile, can't pose.
Front view of St Vitus Cathedral with its rose windows.
The zigzag pattern of the net vaults in the ceiling.
Something interesting we found in the cathedral.
The stained glass window.
St. George Basilica.
We paid expensive admission tickets to see the Golden Lane, a little street in the Prague Castle.
And there is this exhibition that Mr Livingstone was so happy about!
You get to see many armours used in different countries and centuries....
nice.....
The Golden Lane, is lined with small picturesque houses. They are coloured and the origin of some of them goes back to the 16 th century. The renowned writer Franz Kafka lived in the Golden Lane for some time during the World War I.
Since the 19 th century, the houses were mostly rented. There were some important Prague writers among the renters, including Franz Kafka. He lived in the house no. 22 with his sister Ottla in 1916-17. He wrote some short stories for the book A Country Doctor there. Apparently, the Golden Lane by the Prague Castle is where he found inspiration for his book The Castle.
So cute....
The torture chamber inside the castle.
Prague Castle is one of the biggest castles in the world according to the Guinness Book of Record.
The picture is too small, otherwise u can spot the Charles' Bridge.
Spot me.
Among the many advertisements along the street.
As we approach the Charles' Bridge (Karluv Most)
The famous historical bridge that crosses the river Vltava.
I think there is a legend for this sculpture along the bridge, wait till i go and find out.... hee...
View from the top of the tower, overlooking the Charles Bridge and the castle.
Left a flag on their guest book.
The tower.
Happened to catch some festival stuff on the way....they were very loud!
The 'pasar malam' in Prague.
