To je Praha

Product detailed description

​

Is Prague still the beautiful, amazing, and fascinating city it once was, or has it been worn down by millions of tourists rushing from Prague Castle, over Charles Bridge, to the Old Town Square and back? Prague is a city full of towers, hills, gardens, lanes, houses, pubs, secrets, stories, memories, people, animals, and statues. This book invites you to see the city anew.

Stroll through the streets with Michaela Kukovičová and Olga Černá as they reveal bridges, islands, observatories, parks, the bustling center, and the quiet suburbs. Discover how many bridges span the Vltava, learn about the house where the devil smashed the ceiling, and enjoy the views from Žižkov Tower. You’ll also find tips on where to buy the best sandwiches in town.

Alongside sightseeing, the book shares fascinating tales — from the boy who turned into a beetle, the legend of the Golem, to the heroic story of Sir Winton, and dramatic moments like the assassination of Heydrich and adventures of a Czech president at the Castle. In Prague, there is always something to marvel at.
