Beautiful Prague......

Gorgeous day. Hope you enjoy the pics! Even though we are sick, we still had another awesome day in Praha.

This was the Old Town Square - The oldest and most important square in historic Prague, dating from before the 12th century, it was originally a market place where merchants from all over Europe gathered. The square has witnessed many events of historical importance including the execution of 27 Bohemian squires in 1621 and the installation of the new city council in 1784 after the five districts of Prague were united. It was also the epicenter of the Prague Uprising in May 1945. The Hus Monument (1915) stands in the square..
The Prague Astronomical Clock

Clock with Tyn Cathedral in the back

Charles Bridge - Crosses the Vltava River built in 1357. During the night Charles Bridge is a quiet place. But during the day it changes its face into a very busy place, with painters, owners of kiosks and other traders alongside numerous tourists crossing the bridge.
