Random Prague

So many beautiful, interesting things to see in Prague...
this bunny followed us everywhere in Prague



looking over the Charles Bridge
door on St. Nicholas Church - the church bell tower is open for great views of the city (although we didn't have time to do this).  The guide book says during the Cold War the tower was used to spy on the U.S. Embassy across the way. 
door close up
German Embassy entrance

random door detail (meaning - I forgot where I took this)
door details on the Strahov Monastery
door on Vlasska Street
sculpture on a building in Mala Strana near the Charles Bridge

locks below the Charles Bridge on Kampa Island just off Mala Strana
manhole cover

close-up of the Schwarzenberg Palace - entire facade is described as black and white Renaissance sgraffito



a few buildings away from the west entrance to Charles Bridge

these cars, all over Mala Strana and Stare Mesto, are Prague's version of the 'Hop-on-hop off', double decker open bus tours
