U Vlasskeho Dvora Hotel Kutna Hora

... Crowns for students). The cathedral was absolutely amazing, with a beautiful front naive and incredible stained windows adorning the cathedral, and beautiful architecture.<br><br>We also had an amazing lunch, where I had some great chicken with camembert cheese in the middle. Good stuff. Afterwards, we walked a bit quickly to make it to the train stop on time at 17:00. We were barely able to make it, by about 5 minutes, and then made it back into town ...

... St. Barbara's Cathedral towering over the town. It is most impressive from the outside with resemblance to Notre Dame with its buttresses and gothic spires. <br><br>After wandering the town we have dinner at a neat old tavern that has a long menu of local items and some great beer on tap. We leave an hour before the last train for which I have info is supposed to go. We walk to the bus station to see if there is an earlier bus but the last one for the ...

You can buy anything from a jesus statue to bras &amp; underwear in the Vietnamese stalls that line the main thoroughfare.<br><br>I need to steal some photos from my friends as I never have any photos with me in them!

... people visit Kutná Hora is Sedlec Ossuary (also called Kostnice). The chapel houses tens of thousands of human bones (the remains of plague victims) arranged quite nicely. It was a bit smaller than I expected&#8212;you would be hard pressed to spend a half-hour in here (without a camera, probably more like 10 minutes)&#8212;but I&#8217;m not saying I need a million bones to be satisfied. Check the photos for more info.

... Most of the enormous grave yard was closed and re-claimed by the locals about three hundred years ago, and a partially blind priest who lived and prayed at the Ossuary decided to collect all of the bones and stack them around the church building. Eventually they were brought inside the church and stacked in several enormous pyramid shaped piles. The bones were later cleaned and bleached and in the mid 1800's were used to decorate the ...

... Land with some dirt and sprinkled it on the church. The church became very famous and everyone wanted to be buried there. There was a plague in which 30,000 people died and their bodies were left at the church. A while later, someone decided to take the bones and make things out of them and there you have it. There are over 40,000 bodies used in the bone church.

... to go back. Once back in Prague I spent some time wandering around and checking out the market stalls. Last time I was here I bought a stein for someone else and always wished I had one too, so time to remedy that! I decided to take a break from the pork and dumplings and went to a Thai restaurant for supper. So yummy, and it was nice to have some food with a bit of a kick again. After dinner I headed back to the hostel and just had a quiet night.

... statues, the other sights were low-key. Once we'd taken it all in, we plodded down to the smaller local station just in time to catch a train back to our transfer to Prague. Our outbound train was 15 minutes leaving (despite actually starting in Prague!), so I anticipated the return train being behind as well. Sure enough, it was. After about fifteen minutes (and a few misleading announcements), a train appeared around the bend and rolled ...

... and mortality. Skeletons, it turns out, are smaller than you think. Stripped of muscle, flesh and life, the bones seemed tiny- skulls are not much bigger than grapefruit. I still can't decide if I'd mind ending up part of a skeletal chandelier. While looking round I could still taste adreneline and my heart was beating fast. I decided I was in shock after crashing, so went for a big lunch and a sit down at the nearby restaurant. Of course, I may just have been hungry.

... before the woman enters. How rude to just send your woman in :) Personally I think that summer is a nice time to visit Marienbad, because you can take full advantage of all the parks and see the beautiful flowers planted all over the city. Howerver the winter pictures I've seen are breathtaking. So hard to decide... PS: It's safe to walk around the city at night and it's quite beautful
