This was part of Central Europe - Day 1 ๐จ๐ฟ ๐.
I joined the Charles Bridge & Prague Castle Free Tour at 5:30 PM. We started from the Krizovnicke Square and headed over the medieval Charles Bridge.
There are about 30 statues mounted to the balustrade of Charles Bridge forming two rows on either side.
Next we visited Kampa Island. The northern part of the island is also called “Venice of Prague” because of the mills and the canals around. We also saw John Lennonโs Wall.
We then walked by the Church of the Virgin Mary under Chain and onward to Saint Nicholas Church and saw the St Nicholas Bell Tower.
Next stop was Prague Castle. As we climbed the steps we saw the Wrestling Titans and walked through Matthias Gate to see the Kohl’s Fountain and the Chapel of the Holy Cross.
We walked further to the Obelisk at Prague Castle and the Statue of Saint George and saw the Old Royal Palace.
Next was the St. Vitus Cathedral with the magnificent Great South Tower.
We walked past the Empress Maria Theresa Entrance to St. George’s Basilica and onward to Vyhlรญdka u ฤernรฉ vฤลพe, which had great views of the skyline.
