Bridges link you to history


I arrived after a straight flight by Air France São Paulo-Paris, and connection flight to Praha. The nicest air view from Prague is at a summer afternoon. The city is very charming, with beautiful old buildings, castles, art galleries, restaurants and of course…the best beer you can imagine.

Vltava River crosses the city and along the river side a fabulous view. Old and marvelous bridges all along and to cross to reach the other side, better walking. Over the bridges are musicians, painters, souvenirs. Thousands of tourists with cameras and camcorders, everywhere, are taking pictures. People are sitting in restaurants and outside, because in summer weather is nice.

I took a boat tour on Vltava River. It was so involving, exciting, because you get back in history. Prices are good, you can go everywhere and even to concerts without spending that much. You need to exchange money for local currency, but credit cards can be used everywhere even to pay for souvenirs. And of course, car rentals, hotels, hostels, flight tickets, restaurants, nightclubs, coffees.

If you are in doubt to Praha, do not be. Have a look at the links below. I want to return, for sure. I stayed only three days in the city. And that’s not enough. You even need a full day to go to Prague’s Castle, nowadays Government Headquarters but open for visit.
