I really like what Prague looks like from the top. And no matter where you will shoot. I can name a dozen points for shooting and everywhere you get a great view. The streets, houses, bridges, trees all combine into a picture.

The dancing house is one of the most interesting buildings of Prague among the modern constructions. It was built in the 90’s. It has an interesting symbology, since it resembles a pair of dancers, for this reason the building is also called Fred and Ginger. However its surroundings buildings have very different styles, mainly Art Nouveau and Baroque.
One of the most popular Prague’s place - Naplavka! The best way to experience this spot is watching the swans and ducks with local beer in the hand ;)This photo reminds me a day when I quit my regular job in Prague and become nomad.
You just gotta love that:)
A different and beautiful photo.
Thank you so much;)
During my trip to the Czech Republic, I also visited the lovely village Hřensko. Hřensko is a small village in the Ústí nad Labem region on the border with Germany. Hřensko is located at the confluence of the Kamenice and Labe rivers. The river Kamenice, which divides the village, ends in the Kamenice River gorge, a popular attraction of Hřensko.

Monument to Julius Zeyer (1841-1901) in Chotek Gardens (Chotkovy Sady), the first public park in Prague, opened 1833. Julius Zeyer was Czech writer, playwright and Romantic poet. The grotto-like monument features life-size characters from Zeyer's works carved in white marble, emerging from the rocks.

View from the castle Karlstejn on the neighborhood. In every trip to the Czech Republic I try to visit some castle. And I try to choose new ones every time. They are all different and each has its own feature. Its own history.
View from the Ještěd Tower exactly 1 year ago during a road trip. It was freezing cold and impossible to reach the top by car, but walking up there was totally worth it!
Karlovy Vary. At one time Peter the Great was very fond of traveling to this city. There is a house where he constantly stopped. Even like Peter himself put his hand in the construction. Now it's not a house, but a hotel. Here is a photo of this hotel. Of course, it was reconstructed.
you might of missed mine yesterday but here it is again:
This was taken at one of the stops along the river during sunset. The view was stunning. Everything looked so peaceful and relaxing and I remembered holding my cup of large tea from Starbucks taking in the great moment. We were really enjoying our holiday!
Czech Republic is known for its castles and my favorite so far is Karlstejn – the official residence of Charles IV. It stands on the high hill, so the outside view is incredible nearly from every side and also when you are already standing on the walls.
The interior of the castle is strict (unlike Konopiste, for example), but majestic.
And the main thing – it’s only 30 km away from Prague! I highly recommend to visit this wonderful place!
