Today I give here a photo of my favorite relaxation place under the old Šmigula pear. This pear looks like it can't survive another storm that goes through it. The pear is tied with steel ropes and even still breeds.
Location: between Sivice and Pozořice, South Moravia

Orlík Dam and Castle/Chateau Orlík. I admit that I was photographing special clouds. But when the castle and the dam are already there ... This is probably the narrowest place in the dam. But the depth is up to 70 meters.

A detail of the top of the Dancing House, one of my favorites modern buildings in Prague. It was built in the 90’s and its architectonic style is deconstructivist. Its name comes from the fact the building resemble two dancers, e.g. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. One of the structure seen in the photo resembles the head of one of the dancers.

The Tugendhat Villa was built between 1929 and 1930 for the Tugendhat family in Brno. One of the most important European architects of that time, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, was commissioned to design the house. With the decision to accept this contract he did not hesitate for a moment after watching the place where the villa was to grow.

It is not a secret for anyone that Karlovy Vary is famous not only for its healing springs, but also for its exquisite architecture, unusual location. The houses here are built in a valley crossed by the River Heat. And the wooded mountains framing the colorful colors of the Karlovy Vary buildings complement the picture of their own world of this unhurried resort city. Imperial Spa in Karlovy Vary is located near the Grand Hotel Pupp. The architects of this magnificent U-shaped building are the Viennese architects Fellner and Helmer.

Lesser Town Bridge Towers (in Czech: Malostranské mostecké věže), two stylistically different towers, connected by a gate, form the entrance to the Lesser Town from the Charles Bridge. The smaller tower is Romanesque, dating from the 12th century; its current Renaissance appearance dates to 1591. The taller Late Gothic tower, from 1464, is based on the architecture of Parléř's Old Town Bridge Tower.

The monument to Witezslaw Glackow was installed in Prague in 1881 and is located in the northern part of Charles Square, in front of the courthouse. The author of the monument was the famous Czech sculptor Bohuslav Schnirch.
The sculptor Bohuslav Shnirh placed a bronze bust of the poet on a semicircular base forming a memorial bench, on the sides of which are the figures of two sphinxes. The monument was created in honor of the famous founder of Czech poetry, prose writer, playwright and publicist Witezslav Galek. He is considered one of the most important representatives of the school of poetry, in addition to Jan Neruda and Karolina Svetla.
