  • In our today's video, Valery is going to show you cafes, restaurants, and sights of one of the most overlooked parts of Prague's historical city center - the New Town.
    New Town was founded already in 14th century, but it is the center of Prague's local life today. Valery will take you to the Wenceslas Square, the Dancing House, Naplavka, show you Zofin Island, cubist houses, hidden coffee places and her favourite restaurants.

    I think this channel rivals Honest Guide as the definitive channel on Prague. Another great video. There really are endless things to see and discover in Prague. I didn't realise there was a day's worth of stuff to see just in the New Town. I've been there 3 times and missed most of this stuff. I think you have to live there for some time to discover all the cool stuff. Why didn't you show us inside the bunker under the hotel? Is that not possible?

    TRAVELOCITY, can you take a hint??? I believe all travel agencies should make Prague the number one place to go and to recommend "REAL PRAGUE GUIDES" to lead them through that beautiful and history filled city. I have always missed the European side cafe's and art exhibits! Prague is no exception. The only other world destinations that ties with Prague is Athens and Rome as far as history goes! Who knows what,s under the streets of Prague😱!! Is Prague's celestial clock really 600 years old??? Another typical fantastic and fun video Valerie!!! More please!!!🌹👌

      Neni to ani slowTV (i kdyz tam dost bezmyslenkovite chodite), ani bugget (i presto, ze postavate pouze pred vchody ´bodu zajmu´, pripadne pred nejakou fasadou), neni to ani pro boomery (maximalne ten zvukovy podkres) .
      Je to spis nahodny shluk videoobsahu s jakousi vasi autorskou intervenci (ovsem bez hlubsich kontextu - napada me hned uvodni zvraceni u otevreni tematu brutalistni architektury - vubec nevysvetlujete proc zastavate tento nazor. Podobnych vstupu pak mate vice i prubehu videa) Obecne podavate genericke informace, co se dali najit v tistenych pruvodcich, ktere tu mame od nepameti.
      Chybi tomu neco aktualniho. Nejake tema. Coz pak navazuje i na dalsi chybu, ze se sice pred nejakym ´bodem zajmu´zastavite, ale neprinasite zadnou vlastni zkusenost s danym mistem. Zvladnout v tomto videu pouze jeden podnik, nejaky Hare Krsna buffet, je malo.

    • @Pidalin
      @Pidalin Před 2 lety

      There is more "soviet" looking architecture in Vienna than in Prague. Prague was not bombed heavily in WWII, so most of places have still original look like from pre war and pre communistic times. I would not say there is many typicaly soviet buildings, era of socialist realism was in USSR before WWII and in 50s, Czechoslovakia is communist since 1948 so there is more later "brutalistic" architecture, but that's not soviet or communistic, same buildings are even in western europe and I would say even uglier. I was in Vienna now for few days and believe me, it looks more "soviet" than Prague even when they are considered western europe. We were lucky that in first years of communism, architects from first republic were still alive so architecture of that time is relatively nice compared to countries where they had communism longer time.
      But I think there are much worse things than socialist realism architecture, for example "capitalistic baroque" from 90s looks much worse and these buildings destroyed our cities worse than communists.
