布拉格Prague是中欧国家捷克Czech Republic的首都。她的故事太多太多，如同静静流淌的伏尔塔瓦河Vltava River，说不完道不尽的。最好的方式或许是保持沉默，就像查理大桥上的那三十个雕塑。
1. 古风之浪漫。坐标：查理大桥西端附近，Charles Bridge, Lesser Town Bridge Tower, etc, 50.08651839549659, 14.411441919594626。

4. 坐标：查理大桥东端黑色桥头堡上往西看。 查理大桥上的灯光大既8点左右点亮。可以看到远处山顶的布拉格城堡。

6. 坐标：查理大桥东端黑色桥头堡上往东看老城区。
7. 查理大桥往西走几步。
8. 这里的清晨静悄悄。喜欢踏在阳光洒洒的石子路面。像是公寓，不是所有的房间都有晾台。
9. 捷克的啤酒不错，种类繁多。据说是人均per capita消耗啤酒最多的国家。
10. 大教堂，St. Vitus Cathedral。坐标：50.09103462970582, 14.40051142821326。

12. Trdelnik，一种传统面食美食，圆筒状，用炉火烤熟，表面抹上糖和核桃粉，里面还可以加些各种水果，最上面再加奶油。看似满大街都有，但是查理大桥西面的那家总是人满，排长队。一个大的几乎够一顿饭量了。
13. 国家剧院，National Theatre。坐标：50.081062134925304, 14.413572721571057。
14. 看了一场露莎卡 Rusalka，捷克作曲家德沃夏克Antonin Dvorak所作之歌剧。
15. 差不多每天早上都可以看到婚纱照，很多大陆来的，有些带着团队。
16. 网上下载的旅游图。
从CK乘火车，小半天儿就到了布拉格市中心的火车站。然后打个Uber，很快就到了旅馆, Hotel Roma (带早餐)。从旅馆走到一些主要景点一般也就半个小时左右，不需要乘车。布拉格有地铁，但是它的分布密度不如维也纳。地面的无轨电车非常方便，Uber在这里要价也比较合理。我们在布拉格一共呆了四个晚上，觉得差不多够了。
上上篇瞎侃了维也纳吹响了前奏曲，上篇CK热完了身，如今在布拉格结束了本次旅程。从外表上看，维也纳祥和宁静peaceful and quiet，而布拉格则显现出浪漫性感，peaceful vs sexy。你是怎么看的呐？如果让我选择，我会生活在维也纳，偶尔布拉格浪漫一番。
如果时间允许，继续前往匈牙利首都布达佩斯是个好主意。 我们是乘坐了一小时飞机从布拉格到法兰克福转机，然后乘Condor航空直飞美国。
如果你从未去过欧洲，可能会有些问题。我以前的一篇2015春假意大利自助游点滴或许会有点用。欧洲国家多少有些共性。

#12 Hop on a Tram and Ride: Prague has an excellent system of public transportation, using trams, metro, and buses that make getting around the city super easy. The best way to see parts of Prague you might otherwise miss is to hop on a tram and just ride it out in any direction.? Prague’s network of trams is the third largest in the world, following Moscow and Budapest, and is one of the oldest in Europe. In fact, the very first trams were pulled by horses and date back to the year 1879. Today, the extensive network consists of 25 daytime routes, 9 night routes and one historic route. It also stretches over 500 km, and transports over 300 million passengers per year.? We recommend riding a random tram if you are up for an adventure, and people watch as the city-scape slowly passes by. Alternatively, if adventure isn’t your thing, we recommend riding either the historic 91 or 23 Prague trams. These old school trams take you through some of Prague’s most important landmarks.
#13. Dancing House, the Old Town Bridge Tower, the St. Nicholas Church tower, Strahov monastery, and the Zizkov TV tower.

Karlstejn Castle was initially built to house and guard the Crown Jewels of the Empire. A great little day trip outside of Prague, this magnificent castle is a a mere 40 minute train ride away.? A round trip ticket should cost you 99 K? and trains depart just about every 30 minutes. Keep your eyes open on the train, the Czech Republic has some gorgeous country side to gaze at as you zoom by.
