Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic is on most travel lists for central Europe.

For obvious reasons there are fewer tourists this time around. We start our afternoon tour one of the main sights - the astronomical clock. This medieval timepiece on the facade of city hall is a tourist magnet every full hour.

We continue a quick round around the Old Town Square, pass St. Nicholas' Church and head towards the Charles Bridge via a few less explored side roads. When we get from the South of the Old Town back to the central streets we soon see another main sight: The Charles Bridge.

It takes a while crossing the Charles Bridge to Malá Strana. There in the "Lesser Town" we explore a few more streets, see the John Lennon Wall and a few nice backyards. We take our time to see the Vlatava River and ducks (now swans this time). Our path leads uphill as we want to see the Prague Castle.

After many steps we are surprised with a quick entrance to the castle. There we look around the castle complex, which was built since the 9th century, and is now the most significant Czech monument. After we've seen this area which had to be left out on our first walk, we enjoy the view over Prague.

The weather is nice and we've seen many touristic sites of Prague so we end this walk at Hradcany Square overlooking the "Golden City".
