Prague is much hillier than expected. The centre has all the charm of an ancient city, filled with glorious buildings, picturesque cobbled streets and tons of terracotta roofs. But there is also a lot of green with the hills across the river adding texture to the views.

Climbed up a couple of towers for the views. The streets were packed so it was a relief to get out of the crowds. An awful lot of students cramming the sidewalk. Took in the Museum of Torture, which was a mistake. Staggering how inhumane our ancestors were. The medieval zealots would give Isis a run for their money in barbarity and cruelty. 

Much nicer exploring the lanes and boulevards. Finished up in  Wenceslaus square. He lived around these parts in the 10th Century. More recently his square is where the Velvet Revolution took place, which led to the fall of communism in the eastern block.
