| I CAME TO PRAGUE FROM GERMANY | |||
| I arrived in Prague at night by train from Berlin, this is the train station another day. | Every hour crowds gather to watch the Astronomical Clock at the Old Town Hall. | What time is it exactly? | The Prague Meridian is marked, for some unknown reason, in the middle of the old town square. |
| Týn Church rises above some other buildings in the square. | Obecní Dum is an amazing work of Art Nouveau architecture and home to Pragues largest concert hall. | The 65m-tall Powder Tower stands across the Royal Way. | Two battling Titans greet the crowd waiting to enter Prague Castle. |
| St. Vitus Cathedral looms above as you enter the main courtyard of the castle. | Inside St. Vitus Cathedral. | The Great Tower on the left is flanked by the southern entrance, Golden Gate, of the cathedral. | Vladislav Hall, inside the Old Royal Palace, was home to banquets and indoor jousting tournaments. |
| Atop Petrin Hill arts students draw the view of Prague Castle. | A portion of The Hunger Wall can be seen through the trees along Petrin Hill. | Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunic's corraboration 'Dancing Building' or more commonly known as 'Fred & Ginger'. | The view down Wenceslas Square... |
| ...and back up toward the National Museum with the statue of St. Wenceslas in the foreground. | The view across the Vltava River at night... | ...looking at Prague Castle. | The TV Tower 216m, might have nice views of the city on a clear day, but it's just creepy that there are giant babies crawling along the sides. |
