Prague - Czech Republic!

It's the astronomical clock.

 

How come I hadn't noticed this thread... sure thing, it's Prague.

 

thats a damn cool clock

 

Well It was actually in 1410 and is one of the most famous Astronomical Clock in the World. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prague_Astronomical_Clock

 

I love the way the crowd claps every hour when it goes off....I'm sure the clock really appreciates the gesture!

 

Yeah. But for me as a person who lives in Prague.. I on the other hand dislike the crowds of tourists standing there 30 minutes before the the clock show begins. So and so, tourists make our Prague prosper.

 

wow i've never seen an astronomical clock before!

but i can't imagine standing around watching it and clapping everything it goes off...its supposed to do that like clockwork, being a clock and all

but i could see myself watching it for a little while and quietly admiring it

but the crowds would annoy me haha

 

Yeah, it's a huge tourist attraction, but I understand it. When I was a kid I also loved watching it, cause every hour the apostles start to move around and it's so magical. But also when I was a kid, there weren't as many tourists as last few years.

 

those are cool. as I see, the main thing people think of when you ask about the Czech rep. is the beer.

 

I'm glad you liked it.

 

definetely a place I want to check out soon
but recently I don't have have much time for travelling

but in spring I'll have a lot of question on prague

 

ask anytime.

 

thank you very much how are you?

 

you're most welcome.

I'm fine, but a bit tired. How are you?

 

I hope you're feelin' better today I'm good thx

 

Heh, I feel tired constantly, don't worry about it.
