dobry den

prague is such a fascinating city.

at first it feels like you are walking through the set of a costume drama. you expect to see people carrying lighting equipment and as you turn a corner, some kind of make-up trailer with a director screaming orders at bumbling extras.

every building is a work of art - i really do admire that style of architecture that is just so over the top and glorious - it makes you sad that so many british citys have lost that period of architecture.

but at least britain has developed visually as it has culturally. i mean with huge multi-level shopping centres and trendy clubs and bars built in and around modern buildings.

i wonder if some of the architects who built prague would ever dream that one day, their building would house the "biggest club in central europe" where you can listen to techno and watch girls dance in their underwear until 5 in the morning.

although this element of the city has become widely popular with stag parties and the like and is now perhaps what the citys reputation is built upon, i would urge anyone visiting prague to simply spend an evening strolling around the old town square and venturing down its many side streets and they will see a different side of a prague that is more breath taking then anything the clubs and cabaret bars could offer.

my blogs over the coming weeks will purely consist of photos of prague.
