Following a good night’s rest and breakfast we started our day with a guided walking tour of 6 miles beginning with Praha, Ulice Na Příkopě, connecting Wenceslas Square with the Republic Square. It separates the Old Town from the New Town.
This included banks, former banks, municipal buildings, churches, squares, architectural and historical interests, narrow streets, bronze and stone statues, oddities, interests and other ephemera from an old European city featuring the oldest university in Europe.
Highlights included: The Marian Tower located at the 50th Meridian, Charles Bridge, Prague Castle and Palace, Czech parliament buildings and St. Vitus Cathedral. More stops for Czech Pils, wine and food!
