Prague

From Venice, we flew to Prague where we stayed with two friends from UNCW who were studying in the city.


The Old Town Square in Prague, with the Easter Market. The Square was littered with food stalls that were built for Easter, selling street weiners, mulled wine, beer, chimney cakes, candy, and so much more.


One of the various street performers that we saw walking through the vibrant city.


The famous John Lennon Wall, where the Czechs have created Lennon-inspired graffiti since the 1980s when they were still controlled by the Communist regime. The wall was a source of bother for the Communists, and upon the fall of their power, the wall has become a symbol of Czech freedom, love, and peace.


The Cathedral in the Prague Castle, where the new democratic leaders live (like the White House). Since Prague was spared by bombing in both World Wars, all of the original architecture is still standing in its glory.
