Prague

I was in Prague on business March 16th - March 29th. Kristal came to join me on the 26th and we were able to see much of Prague 'old town' as well as the 'lessor town'. Here are some pictures followed by a slideshow including most of the pictures we took. Click on any picture to see it bigger.
Charles Bridge


A view of the Prague Castle from the Charles Bridge. The cathedral you see in the distance is within the castle walls.

A view of 'lessor town' at the end of the Charles Bridge

Within the walls of the castle in front of the Cathedral

Powder Tower. There are 13 towers which served as town gates throughout Prague. This one was built in 1478.


A couple street views near the center of Prague

Old Town Square, looking at the clock tower which also has the Astronomical clock as seen below.

The metro was very deep. Here is the stairs leading down. I had already been on it for about 10 feet before I took this. It took over a minute by escalator just to get to the bottom.
