Cruise on the Vltava River and by the River - The Beautiful Vltava River - Czech Republic ⑬

Our days in Prague were blessed with good weather and excellent conditions for exploring.

In the midst of all this, it was the Vltava River that always brightened my heart.

And there are many cruise ships operating on the Vltava River.

From the bridge I could always see many boats coming and going on this river.

On this day I also decided to board one of those boats and enjoy the beautiful river.

Perhaps I will tell you something wrong. But the important thing here is how we look at the church and find a story in it, based on the premise of what baroque architecture is.

This St. Mikuláš Church. It has become my favorite church in Prague.

No, I would say it was my favorite church of the trip. It was such a wonderful church.

With few tourists, this is a great place to spend a relaxing and calm time in Prague.

Beautiful Moldau and Charles Bridge - The roots of the saints lining the bridge Czech Republic ⑨.

Although the focus tends to be on the beauty of the Vltava River (Moldau) and the bridge itself, this article will focus on the saints who line the Charles Bridge.

Charles Bridge is really beautiful. And the view from there is also wonderful.

But that is not all. There are many ideological speculations hidden everywhere in Prague.

Knowing that the Charles Bridge actually has such an episode made me love this view even more.
