“I stand in the Prague Square at gloam
Throwing down a hope beside the making a wish pond
That white pigeons back on to the setting sun
That tableau is so beautiful that I dare not to see”
Have you ever heard the song<Prague Square> When I first heard the name of Prague, it’s from this well-known popular song. At that time, “the Little I” became to be interested in the beautiful country—Prague which seems to have something special to happen or full of artist breathe.
Legend has it that libue said a prophecy about Prague “A great city, its glory can reach the stars in the sky! I saw it on the VOR in the forest Tawa Riversteep cliffs. There is a man digging out a threshold(prah) for the house to build a castle called Praha . The princes and dukes should bow before the threshold, they are going to bow for the castle and wrapping city. It will be respected, get everyone’s honor and the whole world will praise it”
History and prophecy meets! In 9th Century, the right bank of the Vltava River and the commanding high castle consists of the first Prague. From that moment, Prague is destined to be extraordinary prosperity, doomed like twinkling stars
Once upon a time, Prague is the capital of Bohemia, and became the Holy Rome Empire capital in Charlie IV, after became the financial centre of central Europe .Then, Prague has become the most famous tourism city in eastern Europe.
Follow the footsteps of music, walking into the church of Prague, looking for the colourful glass in lyrics .You will be surprised that the spired glass decorated the tall and dark church appearing so much lively.
A history of the city always with water .Verona Arno River Adige, Florence Prague Vltava River. A river , is not only breeding the people on both sides of the branch , but also containing the abundant history of life.
At that time, the old bridge over the Florence Arno River left a deep impression on me. The most narrow spot of Arno river gathered the most people. And the Charlie bridge over the Prague Vltava River made people feel a lot which is the oldest stone bridge in Europe .The 30 Saint statues on the bridge wait quietly and watch the time flow.
When Michelangelo praised the Florence cathedral cathedral dome: “I can build a larger dome, but can not be more than the beauty of it.” So the dome became the world’s the one and only. Prague also has the only astronomical clock.
In the Legend, in order not to let second magnificent astronomical clock born in the world, the authorities ordered to stab the craftsmen in the eyes, then the Prague astronomical clock becomes the only. The clock dial is drawn on the representation of the earth and sky background, and there are four main mobile disk, which are the twelve signs of the zodiac disc, old Czech schedule, the sun and the moon. Are they also depicts the world changes and the slip of time?
Perhaps, we have all forgotten, Prague, there is also a worth remember characters –Kafka
That a “Metamorphosis” perhaps out of you, also out of me
Now the Golden Lane also retains the former residence of Kafka No. 22
About Czech, about Prague. In the stage of history there is a word has not be forgotten before–
Bohemia. the people in Bohemia Born free, love life render a romantic and leisurely life.
After fifteenth Century, the wandering world people– Gypsies migrated.
So the world civilization added Into the history of Czech. Also because of this
Czech’s construction or Life or Dwelling all perplexing reflect the country characteristics .Gothic Baroque Rococo.. every gives this country heavy.
