Some Pictures from Prague

Awaiting the three sisters posts I've decided to share some pictures which I'm sure they will have many more and better examples for you. MF

 These two are of the Astronomical clock on one side of the Old Town Hall, not sure when added but the building dates from 1338 ( heavily damaged in WW II)

 The Charles bridge from a distance (built in 1357)

View of the Prague Castle from the riverside

 One side of St. Vitus' Cathedral

 Beautiful mosaic above doors

 Main entry side, elaborately decorated doors and entryway

 Real gargoyles, spitting out water from the rain earlier in the day

 I guess its a lute but looked like a banjo for a minute!

 Stained glass windows inside the cathedral were majestic, intricately detailed

 Were we disappointed to learn the crown jewels were not the real deal

 Infant of Prague at Church of Our Lady Victorius, dates from 1628, apparently a wax figure.  Very popular, apparently a lot of miracles attributed to it.
