Magical Prague

Charles Bridge
Prague is one of those places that will beguile you the very moment you arrive.

Old Town Square
Everything about Prague was aesthetically pleasing. The beautiful architecture, the cheap food and beer, the pleasant weather, the sea of tourists, everything!

Karlstejn Castle
We took a couple of sightseeing tours to the outskirts of Prague. Above is the Karlstejn Castle, with its dramatic setting on a rocky outcrop.

Ossuary
The other short trip we took outside of Prague was to Kutna Hora and the Sedlec Ossuary. Kutna Hora has the usual churches and museums. The ossuary, however, is not something we get to see everyday. Heavily decorated with more than 40,000 human skeletons from the Black Plague in the 14th century, the place sent shivers up my spine. But the chandelier truly is an extraordinary work of art, isn't it?
