Description
What do you know about Prague Castle’s Riding Staircase, which allowed horses to enter the great hall for knightly tournaments? Where does Karel, Prague’s most beautiful peacock, live, flaunt himself and spread his magnificent feathers? Why did Anna of Pfalz mix her husband Charles IV a mysterious drink that nearly killed the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Bohemia? Where is the secret entrance to Petřín Hill hidden, guarded by the rare and famous Petřín treasure? Where does the water goblin Kabourek sit, count the cups containing captured souls and go for a properly poured beer? How did a gossiping woman deprive Martin the goldsmith from Golden Lane of his head, when Martin still walks along Golden Lane as a ghost? And where were the establishments in old Prague where love was not professed but sold? Discover Prague with your heart and stroll through familiar places with a perspective that will enchant you. Klára Hášová’s poetic Prague stories bring the city to life.
