My visit to Prague in 2012 is now a distant memory (it's 2024 as I write this).Thanks to the few photos left on my hard drives and presented here, I recall the feeling. No memory of the city itself, the places, or the streets remains—just the essence of the city lingers, which I'm now sharing with you.
And yes, the beer… That's one thing you can't forget, of course. Below is a quotation from Lonely Planet author Neil Wilson
“How can you not love a city that has a pub with vinyl cushions on the wall above the gents’ urinal, so you can rest your head while you ‘go’? Where you can order a beer without speaking, simply by placing a beer mat on the table? And where that beer is probably the best in the world? But it’s not just exquisite ale and a wonderfully relaxed drinking culture that keep bringing me back to Prague. There’s also wit and weirdness in equal measure: a public fountain where two figures pee in a puddle, spelling out literary quotations; a 1950s nuclear bunker hidden beneath a city centre hotel; and a cubist lamppost. Quirky doesn’t even begin to describe it. “Neil Wilson (Lonely Planet)
