    Basilica Sf. George este a doua biserica ca vechime existenta in Praga. A fost construita in stil baroc timpuriu, de catre Vladislav I, in anul 920. In interior, austeritatea naosului realizat in stil romanic este atenuata de scarile baroce care conduc catre absida, unde s-au mentinut pana astazi fresce din secolul 12. Printre piesele de arta din perioada baroca, rudolphiana si gotica, veti mai gasi aici criptele regilor din dinastia Premysl.

Istoria acestuia a fost scrisa atat prin foc si sabie, cat si prin condei, pensula, sevalet, topor …

    I woke up refreshed and in a good state of mind this morning, at a reasonable hour. After I got ready, since I don't have a reliable timepiece, I asked at reception what time it was, I was told it was 10:17, which meant I had 30 minutes to make a 15-20 min. walk as I was told the day before. I started off with little concern until I realized it was …

    Prague Take Two

    I woke up really tired, but the show must go on.

    I boarded a tram and caught a ride over to Prague Castle. The trip takes a while because you have to wind up and down a big hill and cross a river. I really wasn't paying attention at first, but after some time, I realized that I was heading all the way out of town! I got off at the last …
