    Just came back from Prague yesterday, what a city man. Absolutely loved it. Honestly felt really sad when I had to go home again. We just walked around the entire day, taking random turns just to see where it would lead us. From the WWII memorial up to the Vitkov monument. Luckily didn't ran into any scammers or anything. Can't wait to visit it again.

    Fun video. Having been to Prague 6 times, the first time was in 1991 and the last time was in 2018. For me, this video is also good for someone who has 4 days in Prague, not just 4 hours. Once a person gets the major highlights of the city, they can then incorporate these little gems you shared. Everytime I visit Prague I discover something new and wonderful. My next goal for Prague is to visit it during the winter when there is snow. I have lived just 6 hours away from Prague for the last 9 1/2 years, so this is an attainable goal for me. I am hoping perhaps this winter will be the one. It will be a dream come true for me!

  • @beth12svist

    There are statues of St John of Nepomuk EVERYWHERE in Czechia, not just Prague. That's because the Catholic church promoted him heavily during the 17th&18th centuries, as one of the methods of re-catholisation and as a Catholic counterpart to Jan Hus (they lived more or less at the same time). So for quite a time he was the most popular saint in Czechia.
    So you can make a game of it everywhere in Czechia. There's even an online map where people are adding all the spots where the statues are. :D

    The Astronomical Clock and The Old Town Square were beautiful. I remember it being distinctly cool in September 2009. I remember also going to the Museum of Communism. I had no clue that the building we passed by was the Municipal House. Also passed by the Opera House, the one near a bridge. We also went down the river, under Charles Bridge, on a ferry boat, and enjoyed a lot of wine as afternoon became night. Prague is such a beautiful city. I wish we had had more time to explore, especially the Jewish Quarter. I was nineteen, a student when our team won a prize to visit select cities in Europe, and Praha was the first city we landed in. I hope I can visit again in future.

    Do you have a video about the best places to stay while visiting? Or the best areas to make a homebase so that one can efficiently get around to the best spots to see? If not, can you make one please??
