Czech dancing house

I love the Czech Republic, always when I come to Prague, visit this place. Dancing house-known architectural monument of the city, a favorite place of tourists. And Czechs jokingly called "ginger and Fred" after famous couples Gingery Rogers and Fred Astaire.

That part of the building, which resembles a female figure with a slim waist and billowing skirt symbolizes the ginger, but Fred is always there. If you want to watch this amazing architectural ensemble, located on the corner of Resslova street and the Vltava riverbank.

The authors of this building were architects: Vlado Milunich and Frank Gehry. The house was built in 2 years, and in 1996 he was commissioned, thanks to the influence of the then Czech President václav Havel.

Previously, Prague was not such houses with the visual complications, such unexpected forms that amaze many foreigners. But the dancing couple, in whose honor and was named this house looked like in the days of his triumph that way.

In our days at the top of one of the buildings is an observation deck and a kind of iron dome structures and multiple antennas. For a long time in the house was located in an office center, but now the two floor is designated for a hotel. Today, this 21 room hotel and some rooms of the hotel all the walls are glass. The cost of living in a single room is €200.
