Prague In Your Pocket - Charles Bridge (Karlův most)

http://www.inyourpocket.com/
Prague In Your Pocket editor, Jacy Meyer explains the significance of Charles Bridge (Karlův most) which joins Staré Město (Old Town) and the Malá Strana (Little Quarter) and is one of the world's most beautiful bridges. The bridge was built in 1357, but the figures of saints were added during the 17th century. They symbolise the confidence of the Catholic Austrian's triumph over the Protestant Hussites. The bridge is thronged all day with tourists, while at night it offers wonderful views of the illuminated castle and Old Town. Go at dawn to be alone and witness the saints emerging from the mist.

I went to Prague in February and loved every minute of it. I got to see not only the touristy parts (such as Charles Bridge, Astronomical clock, City Hall, etc) but also the suburbs as well. There was a lovely church on the outskirts of the city (not a tourist spot) which was very interesting and picturesque.

My only worry was when I got lost on the first day (hence the visit to the suburbs xD) but I managed to navigate back to the hotel eventually.

Well worth a visit :)
