Hi there my Hivean friends and followers!
It´s around midnight here in the Czech Republic right now when I´m writing this post, which is not when I usually post and I also know that this awkward timing might cause that many of my European fellow Hivers will miss this piece but as I mentioned in my Sunday post, I have been uncomfortably busy in the real life lately and I already know that the next couple of days or even weeks will be still like that so I simply have to take advantage of every free slot in my schedule to spend some time here on the chain, which is why I´m actually posting so late today :)
But enough babbling and whining, what do we have here? Well, views! But not your ordinary views. What you are about to see in this post are some of the finest, dopest and coolest panoramic views of Prague that one can possibly get to see! :)
It was actually just yesterday that I happened to visit the Old Town Hall, one of the most iconic architectural landmarks of Prague, the capital city of my Czech homeland. Dating back to as early as the 14th century, the Old Town Hall is located on the Old Town Square in the very historic heart of the city. Yes, it´s touristy and crowded and yes, I usually avoid such places but visiting the top of the tower with the lookout platform was something that me and my girlfriend had been planning to do for a very long time and we finally made it up there! :)
As you might remember, I have already published a bunch of posts with panoramic views of Prague from various spots around the city but I must admit that the viewpoints found on the top of the Old Town Hall probably beat them all. I hope the pictures below will speak for themselves. Enjoy! ;)
I hope liked the shots. I don´t know how come I ended up taking so many of them, considering that the lookout platform has just 4 sides, each facing one of the 4 cardinal directions, I guess I was so amazed by the views that I just kept clicking :D
I think we were also lucky in terms of the visibility, which was really good that afternoon and also the presence of the beautiful remarkable clouds up in the sky that made for some really cool background but unfortunately, the combination of the sharp and low autumnal sun and the dark dramatic clouds was a bit too much for my old phone camera to handle and I´m pretty sure that ShutterStock will reject the pictures (because they will not meet their quality criteria) so you guys here on Hive will probably be the only people to enjoy them :)
I should also add that the Old Town Hall is open every day and the entrance fee is currently 250 Czech Crowns, which is approximately 10 USD or 10 EUR. Besides the Tower, you can also check out some parts of the interiors and of the Town Hall, which we also did but I might write about it in some of my future posts ;)
