If you want to avoid swarms of people on the Charles Bridge you have to get up early in the morning, but it's worth of it. As early as at 10 a.m. it takes pains to enjoy the Bridge for the uncounted numbers of tourists there. But Charles Bridge is not the only sight for today. I also visit the Town Hall in the Old Town Square getting inside and and climbing on top of its tower. If have ever chance to be in Prague, it's really great to go there and enjoy the panorama of the city. From there you can easily see e.g. the Týn Church with its picturesque towers as well as a the huge monument of Jan Hus, Czech national hero (they are both obviously also visible from the ground).
Take a stroll along Celetna to the Powder Tower with its gold ornaments.
In the evening - Prague by night and photo spree.

I set off early in the morning with my Pascal city guide. An hour in the coach from Legnica to Kudowa and I can enjoy sunrise in the Sudety Mountains. Delightful. After arriving in Prague in the afternoon and leaving my luggage in the dorm I decide to go for a ramble around the city. The weather is really great, sunny but not scorching. I choose one of the routes suggested in my guide, but soon want to see many other places. Despite people from all over the world flocking to Czech capital, it's impressive with its noble architectural legacy. You immerse in its climate so much, you never want to take a rest. Tired out with my head full of new images I got into bed far after midnight.
