  • Wine, Cheese and a Fantastic View

    was told that at Strahov Monastery, you can see a beautiful view of the city. After my 20km hike, I was looking forward to a nice leisurely stroll and a place to enjoy a glass of wine.

    We walked up Prague Castle and I was about to give up on Strahov Monastery but pressed on as I was looking forward to just relax and chill. And I did. There was a restaurant where you could just sit , order your wine and enjoy the view. I didnt visit the library , museum etc but the wine , cheesecake and view made this moment one of my most memorable in Prague. My friend wanted to return to Prague to hold a wedding here ...provided she could herself the right guy!!!
