Christmas in Prague

Stamped: 5:11 PM

After a 14 hour bus ride from Den Haag (no kidding...) we found ourselves in Prague. We love this city cuz everything is so cheap! The Czechs are also very friendly people, as we talked to many store owners trying to bargain our way through for some souvenirs. Check out the sights~

Frank Gehry's earlier works, the Dancing House. Didn't go in, but admired it from the outside. I was so glad I brought the tripod along so that I could get a couple of decent night shots out of the lousy digital camera :)

Look at Chet marching behind these Czech soldiers on parade around Prague Castle grounds!

On the plane to our next destination... Where will it be? Hiakz...

You are lucky that you saw Prague in Christmas! Most of all I like the Old Town Square which is the heart of the city, Prague this year has red lights on the large Christmas tree in the center of the square, surrounded by stalls selling handcrafts that lend color and charm to the season. It would be extra luck to stay in some Prague accommodation near Old Town Square. Young, old and in between, everybody still enjoys standing by the Astronomical Clock in the Old Town Hall, by Old Town Square, and watching the mechanical figures come and go with the striking of the hour. top
