Prague, Czech. Republic
| I spent 8 weeks working in Prague during the summer and autumn of 2001. This page has some great Photos of Prague by Day, night and 1 very unusual picture. Click a Picture to view a larger image. |
All Legs no Body This picture was taken as Gavin was coming down the steps, moments later when viewing the picture on the LCD screen of the Digital Camera we noticed a set of legs to the right of the picture. There was nobody else around at the time. A close-up is shown below. The amazing thing is that there is actually a shadow being cast by what seems to be nothing but a set of legs. |
All Legs no Body (Closeup) The strange thing is it casts a shadow and there seems to be a shine on the shoe, like a buckle ! |
At the Castle This is the fantastic view of the Main Entrance. It's a very busy tourist attraction and much to see around this area. | ||||||
At the Castle This was taken at the same spot as the photo above and its a great area to see the city skyline. |
At the Center of the Castle Grounds This picture was taken at the large Cathedral in Prague Castle. Its the large reddish building in the picture below. |
Charles Bridge from the Bridge Tower This photo was taken from a tower situated on Charles Bridge showing the bridge and the Castle once again. To the left on the hill there is also a copy of the Eiffel Tower. | ||||||
From Stalin to Pendulum This pendulum is situated on the spot where a statue of Stalin once stood. It was later replaced with a statue of Michael Jackson for a Music Video and now has a pendulum which just sways back and forth, lighting up at night. |
Old-Town Square Old-Town Square is a hub of activity at night, with cafés, bars, discos opening until 5 or 6am. The large astronomical clock on the left, strikes every hour with animated figures coming out and striking the clock. Some good Irish bars around here, one evening we watched Ireland v Croatia and then joined in a Trad. session in the Pub. |
Sinus Problems ? This guy had a very unorthodox way of clearing his nose and throat, by hammering nails into his nose and swallowing a bent and winding sword. | ||||||
The Castle by Night At night nearly all of the buildings, monuments and Statues in Prague are floodlit. |
The Guards at the Gate The statues on top of the pillars are over 15 feet tall. |
The Rooftops Again, taken from the Bridge Tower, this photo shows the roofs of the old part of the town. In the distance you can see the futuristic TV tower. | ||||||
View of Prague Castle and Charles Bridge The building on the hill is one of Prague's most famous sights, Prague Castle. Charles Bridge is seen in the foreground. The climb up to Prague Castle is tiring, as you climb up the cobbled back streets. |
