Prague! Oh Prague!

I first heard about Prague from the Korean TV show, Lovers in Prague which is also known as Praha Lovers. In the show there was a wall where people used to leave notes with their wishes on it like it was a pin board or something. That one and its uniquely spelled name got me curious.

It is the largest and the capital city of Czech Republic. The place has its own noble history and culture to boast. It is located in the center of Europe and was also known as the City of Hundred Spires and many more. According to a legend, the youngest child of the Czech ruler, Krok, and the wisest among his three daughters, LibuĊĦe, had a vision. She stated that “a city whose glory will touch the stars” will rise on a hill across the Vltava river. She predicted the foundation of the now prosperous City "tu be built where a man hews a threshold of his house".

Like Paris, Rome etc., Prague is now one of the tourist attractions in Europe and there are actually a lot of ways to tour the place. It can be by car, by cabs, by trams or the underground. But the best way to enjoy the place is just by walking, since the beautiful attractions of Prague are just walking distance from each other. I myself would want to step in its cobble-stoned streets. Of course it is very important if you decide to walk your way around, that you wear comfortable footwear. You definitely wouldn't want to have your ankles sprained or spend more of your time complaining with your feet aching. It will be tiring but then the breathtaking scenario of Prague will be worth it.

There are a lot of articles describing and showing the beauty of Prague but personally being theru would be so muuh different. I um already hypedureading them what more if I find myself standing in the center of Old Town Square or enjoying the Castle uphill.

Prague is a postcard perfect picture at every angle.

It is actually on the top of my list. Someday I’ll go there with my best friend and we’ll both walk around Prague and stick our own wish notes on the wishing wall wherever that is.
