WELCOME TO CZECH REPUBLIC
So here we are visiting the city of Prague
Our steps take us to Charles bridge
bridge that put together the old city and the Lesser town
This bridge is more than just a historic treasure
The legends say that its statues
make become true your wishes
and the halo os mystery that sorrounds it
Contributes to the magical atmosphere that characterizes Prague.
In 1172, King Wenceslaus I ordered the construction of a stone bridge connecting both banks of the Vltava River.
But this bridge collapsed and only two towers survived,
which, by the way, can be visited and there are usually not many tourists in them.
Finally, a new bridge was constructed by order of Carlos IV in 1357, that has survived until our days.
Once crossed the bridge we enter the district of Malá Strana,
where there are very curious places that we will show you.
We have been at the Carles bridge
which is Prague most famous street
and now we are heading to the narrowest one
This street is 10 meters long and 50 centimeters wide,
but so narrow is not what makes it so special,
but the traffic light to regulate the passage at each end of the street.
A few steps away is the Franz Kafka Museum,
with personal objects and first editions of the most famous works of this peculiar writer.
This is the town of Mala strana
which means Lesser town and it is located on
west side of the Vltava river
This town is usually recognised as the pearl of the baroque
due to its italian influence and apart from the main castle it has many other palaces
which nowadays are located the embasies
this church located at the Lesser town
is The Church of Our Lady benaeth the Chain
Was founded around the year 1100 and the knights of malta protected a chain
that was located in the river where they were able to control the access and also protect this part of the city.
In addition if you want to know more about the knights of Malta you can click here and you will see our videos of Malta
Surrounding the church we reach the most hipster point of the city: The John Lennon Wall.
Despite his name, John Lennon, he never visited Prague.
Its origin dates back to the death of the famous former Beatle who since
then has been continuously decorated with graffiti inspired by his figure and world peace
Today the wall is understood not only as a memorial to the figure of Lennon,
but also as a monument to freedom of expression and nonviolent
rebellion that the Czech youth brought before an authoritarian regime.
We head towards the hill where Prague Castle stands, whose main street is Nerudova Street:
a picturesque street full of restaurants and shops very, but very steep.
I promise you that I will build a monument at my village to the guy who install a lift here
OMG what a slope!
This is going to hurt!
lalalalalalala
But, as always, every effort has its reward
even in the form of panoramic views.
The high area of this neighborhood is well worth a visit
but this time we will focus on the part that concerns us: the Castle.
Welcome to Prague Castle
The Pragueians proudly declare that it is the largest ancient castle in the world,
570 meters long and 130 meters wide.
Within its walls is the cathedral of San Vito. It is the largest exhibition of Gothic art in the city
and was the setting for the coronation of all the kings of Bohemia.
Due to its history of more than 1100 years, the architectural styles of the castle almost
reflect the architecture of an entire millennium from the Gothic to the Baroque.
A succession of courtyards and alleyways connect the luxurious palaces,
now art galleries and museums, with the churches and towers that served as a prison.
Today, Prague Castle is the official residence of the President of the Czech Republic
and almost all of its areas are open to the public.
Arriving to the east end of the castle is the most photogenic and visited area
of the whole complex and possibly the country.
The Golden Alley is characterized by its colorful buildings built to
initially house the twenty-four guards of the Emperor Rudolf II of Habsburg.
But the place owes its name to the goldsmiths who later lived here.
Franz Kafka lived in one of these houses for a while.
If you are going to visit the Alley here you have a piece of advice
after 5 is free.
Well I have loved the Castle!
To be honest the Golden Alley
its a picturesque place but we don't its worth it to pay for it.
No because all around Prague you have more beautiful streets
If you came after 5 better for you because the entrance is free
For visiting the cathedral you have to pay but
if you come just before 16:30 that it is when the close
you can get to the entrance and there you can have a look inside
Also itis important to say that there are two exits
one is located in the same place than the entrance
and the other in the other side of the Castle
It is more beautiful the last one because you have panoramic views of the city
We say it is 5 stars
because it is worht it
But don't forget to be prepared to climb the slopes
If you want to visit the Castle here we will put the prices
We never got in because we didn't have time
Well so comment the video
and we us a like
We enter the night of Prague looking for a place to dine and,
as it could not be otherwise, we found a place according to this magical city.
Check this place out!
At this restaurant you will geet serve by a train!
It is called Vytopna
We ordered a vegetarian pizza and a chicken salad
The prices are more or less ok
But the food wasn't the best that we have tried here
It was normal
We it has 4 stars becuase of the trains
it is so cool
And so ends our first day in the Czech Republic.
Our advice? That you walk all along Prague both night and day:
The places will be the same but the sensations and sights of the city change radically
