A beautiful city as pictured. The Vultava River flows through the city. Very spacious and spacious. There is no straw on the water. It seems that the river is well taken care of. One and a half year old bridge over Voltaver. The name is Charles Bridge. This is the story of Prague arranged on that bridge.
Prague is the capital of Czechoslovakia. Living in Stockholm, Sweden, not too far from there. It did not become the way to go. But this country and country was wandering about. One day while walking around the internet, the eyes of Charles Bridge's colorful picture was caught. It seemed, not too late, this time Prague, this time Charles Bridge!
If you want a thorough look at a country or city, you have to rely on both sides. Walking in the car is not fun. So I decided to walk on foot to Prague. However, tram, bus, local train can be used from one place to another.
A four-star hotel was booked on the Internet around the time of day. Station near the hotel, the name Kobilisi. Koblisi is a famous place in Prague. Cutting the ticket on the sauce and check air began bagging.
Two countries are one country. Czech and Slovakia - Two combined Czechoslovakia. The Freedom Charter was signed in Prague on 28 October 1918, shortly after World War I. Although Czech and Slovakia's financial balance was not parallel, only on the question of independence did the two countries unite and gain independence.
Hitler's German forces occupied the country in World War II. Czechoslovakia loses independence. Then the Communist regime started in the 1948. The country was ruled by Soviet aggression in the 1968. The anti-communist movement started in the 1989. In the two countries, Czech and Slovakia separated and the two countries gained independence 1992.
Just before the departure day in Prague, a hotel booking message arrived. We have already booked various hotels in different countries with a visa card. Then I got billed and got up at the hotel. But I have not received such message before.
Anyway, I arrived in Prague on a scheduled day. Stylish airport with sorted views. Just hand-luggage with us. So no luggage had to be collected from the belt. The bus from airport number two will be located in Central Prague. Our carrier landed at the number five terminal. Two number terminals came out with number five.
A minute's walk on foot. Waiting for the bus to come, the passengers came one by one. Air Conditioned Bus - Sixty Kuna tickets per person. Only three hundred rupees as money. Sunny day The unmanned bus is on its way to Central Prague. After about thirty-five minutes, the bus stopped at the head of the Central Station. Take the elevator down to Central Station.
On the clock I have time on my hands, so let's eat something. Looking at the left, I saw Max Burger. Clean Bright Central Station. From here three trains, subway trains go to different places on the Red, Green and Yellow lines.
After the meal, I came to the rail counter. Our destination is Kobilishi Station. Only four stations from Central to Red Line. On the side of the counter is the platform to go to Kobilishi. In just eight minutes, Kobilishi arrived. Thinking in the platform I was wondering in which direction to get out of the station?
There are two exit routes - right and left. The hotel said the distance from Kobilishi to the hotel was only seven minutes' walk. Looking up, a boy on the platform was talking on mobile. She might be waiting for the train. I went to him and asked for a hotel route.
The boy started talking on the mobile phone. Even if he didn't know English, he said in his words and gestures, "No problem, wait a bit." In the meantime two of his trains were gone. He's busy with us. Finally take us up the right path and show you the way to the hotel.
I went ahead. Can't find the hotel. And I looked forward to a restaurant. A boy standing in front of the restaurant, bandaged on foot. I went and asked about the location of the hotel. The boy spoke good English, and said the hotel was at the front of the street. But you have to turn around a bit. The road is closed due to work being done on the road. He again said, "You are new to the city, so you may not know the way around. Calling a taxi to go to the hospital to show your feet, I can drop you off and go to the hospital."
In fact, the boy dropped us in front of the hotel and went to the hospital. I got up at the hotel and spent the rest of the night feeling refreshed.
The next morning, I woke up fresh and came down to the ground floor reception in hopes of coffee or tea.
The chair table leaves a hall of medium size next to the reception. Breakfast is served with a splash. Next to the juice, tea and coffee cabin. From banana to various types of bread, butter, honey, cheese yogurt, salad, eggs and more. But the proportion of four-star hotels may seem a little low, but there is no lack of sincerity. A list of daily dollars, euros, pounds of exchange rates on each table. After breakfast, it is the turn to visit Prague.
Before leaving the hotel, at the reception I wanted to know why it took us so long after seven minutes walking distance of the hotel from Kobilishi Station. The receptionist was a little surprised to hear, "You must have come out of the right side of the station? Near the left."
The old city of Prague is full of historical landmarks and attractive to tourists. From the reception, I came to the tram station to collect the map of the old city. Trump ran into the old town. The town that houses Charles Bridge, Clock Tower, Albert Einstein.
From the hotel, the tram to the Sturmoweska station. From there, walk to the Old Town or Old Town. City Hall in Old Town. From the year 1338, the city was governed by Prague or from the city hall. The king, the royal council, used to sit in the city hall. Sometimes the city hall was used as a prison for the rebels.
With City Hall, the lagoon is a famous astronomical clock or astrological clock. The watch was made in 1410. However, it was repaired at a special time. The clock displays both the Jodiak calendar and the clock. This astronomical clock in Prague is the only clock in the world that is displaying time, day, week and year.
As we approached the clock, it was twelve minutes before the clock struck. Thousands of curious travelers stand in front of the clock. We stood up too. At exactly twelve markets, the watch parts were opened immediately. To make a noise, the idols of birds, skeletons, various animals and women began to sing in cycles. That is a memorable moment.
Walking along the streets of Old Town, eyes closed on the wall of a large door. On the wall is a facade of scientist Einstein and some engravings. Prominent writers Mac Bred and Franzat Kafkaer met here with Nobel laureate Albert Einstein.
Einstein was a professor of theoretical physics at the University of Prague in 1911-1912. Just this time he wrote his famous dissertation, The Theory of Relativity. Einstein lived in this old town, just a few old houses, passing through the door. Although his residence was not preserved.
Einstein left Prague's jute at the University of Zurich, Switzerland. The magnificent Einstein Museum has been set up in the country's capital, Bern. When the state of Israel was formed after World War II, Einstein was invited to become the first president, but he did not accept it.
I was so overwhelmed to see the historic buildings of the old city that lunch didn't even come to mind. After lunch at a hotel pizza, I went out again. Now the destination is near the Charles Bridge, Einstein residence. Clouds in the sky have begun to call.
Immediately after the roar of the cloud, the lightning came down immediately. We had to wait for the rain. Last afternoon, the rain came down and the trough came down. At that time the attraction of Charles Bridge declined. Short-term manihari shops have been demolished. Yet the crowd of tourists.
Charles Bridge is one of the seventeen bridges over the Vltava River in Prague. This bridge was built in the name of the Czech King IV Charles III. The 621-meter-long and 10-meter-wide bridge, mounted on fifteen pillars, is 13 meters high from the water's edge.
From the middle of the eleventh, there was an effort to build a bridge over the Voltava River. The structure was first made in a wooden frame, but it was destroyed in the 1157. After many tests, the bridge was finally built.
Sand sacks are used to construct bridges as hard as stone. Some more ingredients, including eggs, were added to harden. Once there was no egg in town. Then the eggs started to come from the remote areas of the village. Many times, the eggs come from far and wide and break down on the way. Then there was arrangement to bring the boil eggs.
It is not known whether the historians have found out the truth of the egg, but in the East and in the West there was the use of eggs in the construction of a structure. Eggs have also been used in the construction of the Hazardwari Palace in Murshidabad, built in the nineteenth century.
In those days, Charles Bridge was used to suppress criminals. Anti-monarchy, social criminals and thieves robbers were thrown into the river from the bridge of the robbers. In a dispute with the queen, famous figure John of Nepomukh was thrown into the Voltava River from the bridge on the 1393.
The Statue of John of Nepomukh still exists on the bridge. An old statue of a bearded man bowing his head at the end of Charles Bridge. The old man looks at the water at night and measures the height of the water. After crossing the bridge, we came across it. It's gone in the afternoon. Need to rest back at the hotel.
Asked to know, the nearest metro station, Central after three stations, then Central to Kobilishi. On my way to the Metro station, I came to the front of the Franz Kafka Museum. Famous writer Franz Kafka was born in the old city. Kafka used to streamline life in two ways, as a humble gentleman's office assistant during the day and a strictly devoted writer at night.
On the way, I see a girl selling boat trip tickets on the Voltava River. Well, the next day we will come back to Prague under the bridge. The girl said that after an hour, the boat went down to the bottom of the sixteen bridges, including Charles Bridge over the Volta.
The next morning I will get out at nine o'clock in the morning. At eight o'clock in the morning, crowds of tourists rush to breakfast. Most are European. A family seems to have come from a country in the Middle East. The girls in the family are all dressed in colorful clothes.
Exiting the hotel is a large park on the street. The Green Ceremony. There are not many people in the park with two or three old dogs spending time with their dogs. Dog pets are a tradition of Czech people. It's called "Russians love children and Czechs their dogs".
However, it is not the Czechs who do not love their children. However, the love of a pet dog is no less than that of a child. The Czechs occupy the first position in dog breeding in Europe. Almost every family has a large beds, dishes, towels, etc., like a servient courtyard. Checkereds used to eat in hotels and restaurants with dogs. There were also separate cups and plates for the dogs.
Then the train came to Central. Half the cost of train tickets for minors and senior citizens. Our destination is Malostranska Station on the Green Line. Walking distance from the station is Charles Bridge. Arriving at the Central Station, I could not find any green line.
A lady on the platform waiting for the train. After asking him questions, he brought us upstairs to the elevator and sat down on the train and waved his hand. Wherever I asked in Prague, everyone gave up their work and raised their hand. This is usually not the case.
When I got down at Malostranska station, I boarded a ticket and sat on the boat. Small boat Many others like us sit. We left the boat as we sat. Sunny day The temperature of the day is rising. Clouds like white onions in the sky. There is no rain in this cloud. Gentle breeze.
Our boat sailed from Heldul on the transparent waters of Voltaver. A girl came and asked if we wanted any soft or hard drinks. Wanted coffee The boat's microphone greeted the journey and the description of the river's structures and bridges swept away.
After traveling for about two hours on the river, returning to Central Station, it seemed that Prague was almost over. Some palaces and churches attract travelers. But they didn't want to see them anymore. I have seen so many churches in Turkey and Cyprus that I have lost sight of the church.
One more day on hand. What can be done Thinking about Vienna seemed to think. The whole day can be spent in Vienna. Only a four hour train from Prague. See also Vienna, train travel can also be enjoyed. Without hesitation, I cut the ticket to Vienna. The next morning at eight o'clock the train to Vienna.
There are direct trains from Prague to Vienna, Berlin, Budapest, Hamburg. Not that far away. Come back in the day. No checking from one country to another, no hassle.
The next day at eight o'clock the train left Vienna. Fast train - only three stops. Four to four hours to arrive. On the way, the train takes a little longer at the breaklov station. The line has to change.
The train is moving at the speed of a storm. No words, just stop and go without interruption. There is no one-wheeled ferryman. Passengers are busy with laptops, smartphones. The magazine was seen in the hands of some.
We arrived in Vienna, the Austrian capital, at twelve o'clock. Vienna as the lively city occupies the first place in the world. But the cities I have visited are Sydney, Melbourne, Amsterdam, Zurich, Geneva, Istanbul, Antalya, Athens, Casablanca, Marrakesh.
Vienna Station is similar to other European stations. The lid is clean. It's lunchtime. Foodcourt inside the station. Various local food restaurants. We sat at a table in an Indian restaurant. Pulao, Chicken Curry, Tandoori, Bhaji etc.
The train to Prague returns at five in the afternoon. Lunch was gone at one o'clock in the morning. The time in our hands is just four hours. Four hours out of the station, I saw Vienna city as much as possible and returned to the station with insatiable mind. The streets of Vienna are similar to other European countries, but some of the most famous buildings are nowhere in Vienna.
Will come back to Vienna again as time and opportunity. Four hours is nothing to see in Vienna. We returned to Prague at 9:30 pm, thirty minutes later at the hotel. Flight to Stockholm at 11:30 am the next morning. What else can I say about returning? I would say no to any next trip. But any other time.
