Prague, Czech Replubic - Heaven on Earth (5-7 May 2008)

I'm getting lazier and lazier to write my travel blog. After Prague, there is one more to go...which is Amsterdam...and I'm slowly forgetting the in depth details of the trip :(

Long ago...b4 i even know where Prague is...i've started to heard of this place from different people...but the feedback were all the same --> Prague is very pretty, its a must go place!

and yes..they are all right! Prague is indeed very pretty!

Old Town Square, the tall building is Tyn Tower - which i like the most!

We spent 2 1/2 days at Prague. We didn't join any day tour but solely exploring the city by our foot. Of all the landmarks and places we went....Old Town Square was the place that we've spent the most time with...why? coz its one of the top 3 attractions in Prague and furthermore its the nearest from our hostel. The other 2 main attractions will be Charles Bridge and Prague Castle.

Highly stood Prague Castle looks 'small' from far

Charles Bridge - led us to Prague Castle

Other than the 3 main attractions, what made Prague so pretty are the buildings! Welly organized, unique by itself, unique architecture, vibrant colour....I am not good in describing it in words...but Prague is just so different from London, Budapest and Vienna! It gives me a fresh impression towards Europe :D

Oh ya...one of the highlights - we watched orchestra, finally. We wanted to watch at Vienna but couldn't make it...so we have done it in Prague. Frankly, i am not a classical music person...so, i cant tell whether the show was a good one or just normal standard just to please tourist like us. Anyhow, i think i enjoyed the 1 hour show and its kinda nice to me :)

As for food in Prague, the traditional Czech dish seem to be roast pork knee, roast duck with picked cabbage and dumpling. We managed to try both and its nice! Other than that, we had Chinese food and sandwiches. We also did grocery shopping at Prague...coz things and food sold at Prague is cheaper. For those ppl who know me, i like instant noodle. Wherever i go, i will try to buy local instant noodle...haha...so i'v bought some in Prague as well. Coffee-holic will of course stock in coffee lo...:P

I dunno what to write anymore, as there's nothing special happened and we all enjoyed our time at Prague. Just let the photos do the talking....For those who feel tempted and want to go, please do so before 2009....before they switch to Euro...haha...it would be much more costly by then :P
