Prague, the Capital of The Czech Rebuplic was on the list on Day 7. During the last few days we’ve been like kids in a candy store, far too many beautiful places and sights around us. In Prague we would have had possibility to take a hop on, hop off -bus tour as well, but we decided to take just a day ticket to metro. Our hotel was a couple of metro stations away from the old town of Prague in a place called Dejvice. We hopped off at the station of Staromestska and decided to withdraw some Korunas from the nearest ATM. After withdrawal some money one man came to me and ask me to change my money to smaller 500 notes. Sorry, but I have travelled a lot to learn my lessons and I do know the tricks of the local cheaters. The second thing related to money, which has been a bit bizarre on our roadtrip so far, is that although the countries are the members of EU and there aren’t any customs formalities at the borders, but when you drive to the petrol station to refuel, you must be awake! a) what is a valid currency in this specific country…zloty, euro, forint, koruna, krone, krona? b) what is a currency exchange rate at that moment? c) when you withdraw some money, you better count the zeros twice, otherwise you might end up to withdraw more than was intended.
We decided to have a walking tour in Prague, because all the attractions are within walking distance of each other. First we walked to Charles Bridge ”Karluv Most”. There were lots of tourits and the bridge was very crowded, but we managed to get over the bridge and river Vltava. The bridge is decorated by 30 different historic statues.

We had a lunch in Prague Castle side in a place called Rainbow’s End Cafe and Art Garden. It is a very nice Art cafe hosted by Sophie & Pinar. We highly recommend this place, great staff, good coffee and relaxed atmosphere. Wifi password will say it all ”lifeisnow”. I could have stayed there the whole day.

After lunch we walked up to the Prague Castle or maybe I should say that we climbed up to the castle hill by stepping up many stairs. The castle and the views were magnificent. On the way back to old town of Prague, we deserved one of the local delicacies ”Chimney” with homemade vanilla ice cream.

We’ve got a hint that we should visit one of the Black Light Theatres in Prague. So we booked the ticket to one show called ”Aspects of Alice”. It was a great experience and the show was very entertaining. Unfortunately it was not allowed to take any photos or videos of the show, but you definitely must experience the Black Light Theatre yourself when visiting Prague next time.
Although I am not fond of beers, but that is a ”must” to drink at least one mug of cold Czech draft beer.
