Travel Around the World with Alvin

Day 17: Prague

01/08/2015

Free Breakfast Buffet Included, yay! It actually has a lot more to choose from than crossroads haha!

One way 30 minute ticket to the city center is just 23 Czech Koruna, and if you buy it from the ticket office, you can use your credit card, which gives me 2% discount because it falls into the travel category.

 

Today is kind of a busy day because I only have today as a whole day in Prague. Then, I will be going to Paris!

Charles Bridge

This is the most famous bridge in Prague. The scenic from there is just amazingly beautiful. The city is quite, kind of like Lugano in Switzerland. As it is a footbridge, no traffic is going through the bridge, and therefore, there are sculptures, as well as hawkers and street performers, along the both sides of the bridge. The weather wasn’t too nice in the morning, a couple drizzles. I think it would be much prettier if there is sunlight.

Lennon Wall

After walking across the bridge, I soon arrived the Lennon Wall. The wall is all about John Lennon, whom I don’t really know much about (Tripadvisor guided me there). Street performers ->

Lunch

Not too far away from Lennon Wall, I walked into a Czech restaurant. The menu is confusing, even though they have English translation. I just chose a Pork Steak.

Valdštejnská zahrada [Wallenstein Garden]

Closed today. I could only see what’s inside from the hill.

 

Golden Lane

St. Vitus Cathedral

Gorgeous from the outside. It also requires admission, but it was getting late when I arrived. I needed catch up with my time and go to the next attraction before the sunset.

Prague Castle

Same location as the St. Vitus Cathedral. Security soldiers are very like the ones I saw in Great Britain.  They just stand still in front of the castle.

Petrin Tower

IMG_5275 IMG_5276

This is the tallest manmade structure in Prague. You could see literally any part of Prague from the top. When I arrived, it was already after sunset, which made me no choice… going to bathroom without paying anything but but… the bathroom actually cost 5 czech dollar just to get in.

National Theatre

Just saw it from the outside. Unfortunately, in January, the outer side of the building was being renovated.
