Goodbye Prague

This morning, we toured the New Town part of the city before driving to Karlovy Vary.  New Town is not as charming as the rest of the city.  The Mucha museum is the highlight from that area.

I promised more about street food.  We stopped for Trdelnik which is sort of like a cinnamon roll but it's cooked over charcoal so it's smoky tasting.



I thoroughly enjoyed Prague and would be happy to return anytime. It is truly the city of spires and with the richest architecture seen anywhere.  From Gothic to Renaissance to Baroque to Rococo to Art Nouveau; it has them all.

My favorite thing is the St. Vitus Cathedral. Started in 1344 and finished in 1926. Nothing like the plague, various uprisings and a war or two to put you behind schedule.
