Well it is a corruption of the Czech tourism's tag line but there is no other way i would describe it. The cobbled streets , the spires reaching the skies with the stubborn summer sun refusing to set is pure ecstasy. The old town square surrounded by churches, clocks and chimes with live performances by buskers transport one into a trance.Whoever said love is an emotion. The air in Prague is so laden with it.We can even eat it dipped in chocolate sauce. Drink one of the many beers and feel love wash all over oneself.
Prague is a town to be explored on foot. The place names are so Czech that one cannot say or understand them. How does one pronounce a proper noun with 5 consonants and 1 vowel added as an afterthought.The labyrinthine metro stations tires one out and the steep escalators are a ride direct to heaven especially for a person who has bathmophobia . The trams are quaint and rides romantic.It is so easy to get lost on the right hand drive roads due to the diametrically opposite directions orientation in this part of the globe.But getting lost and discovering another beautiful hidden corner adds to the mystique of Prague .
Local cuisine matches up to the beauty of the place. Cafe Louvre where the likes of Einstein and Kafka dined lived up to its hype.
Charles Bridge at twilight is straight out of a fairy tale.
So much so that one starts to wait for the pumpkin carriage to arrive and whisk us to the midnight party at the castle across the bridge.

Old town square, cobbled streets, buskers and Chocolate dipped love...! A heady mix indeed!
ReplyDeleteOn a completely different note, does St.Vitus of the cathedral have anything to do with St.Vitus of the neurological disease? I wonder!
Indeed
DeleteSt Vitus the patron saint of Prague is also the one people with epilepsy thronged to.
Choreoathetoid movements of RF similar to epilepsy and hence the connection
Keen mind I note
