Hello, I'm here to share some photos of Prague. Prague is a truly romantic old city. We went during the summer transitioning into autumn. The weather was pleasant, around 18 degrees Celsius during the day, but quite cold at night. The leaves were starting to turn yellow and some had already fallen. We encountered some rain on a few days, but it didn't last long and the sun came out again. We took so many photos that I'll have to divide them into several parts. I may not have many details, as I didn't take notes, but I'll share what I remember. We took bus number 119 to get to the city center and got off at Dejvicka station, which is a metro station. We stayed in this area, not in the city center. To be fancy, we stayed in a hostel, haha. It was cheap and good, so we had more money to spend on sightseeing for several days. We chose a single room with a shared bathroom, but the room had a sink for washing our faces and brushing our teeth, which was great. We arrived late, around 11 pm, and checked in. We could pay in euros or korunas. Our room was about 800 baht per night. They gave us a room key and a bathroom key. We rested and woke up early the next morning to continue our adventure.

During our stay in Prague, we mainly used the metro and trams to get around. I forgot to take pictures of the trams, both old and new. I only remembered to take a picture of a tram from afar on the day we were leaving. Traveling in Prague is very convenient, and you don't have to worry about getting lost. The people in this city are also very friendly to tourists. As a solo female traveler, I felt very comfortable exploring the city on my own. Most people don't speak English, so I just pointed and gestured.

Waking up early this morning, we will take you to Petrin Hill, pronounced "Petrin". We secretly read it as "Petrin", haha. We want to see the view of the city's rooftops like we've seen in postcards. From our accommodation, we take the metro and then the tram to the Ujezd tram stop. You can get a map from the metro station, they have them available. The letters are written the same, so it's not confusing (in Moscow, the map is written in English, but the actual signs are in Russian, so you have to compare them and I almost got lost). There are signs everywhere we go, or you can count the stations. We do this often, like when we want to get off at a certain station on the map, we count in our heads every time the train stops. When you get off the tram, walk up the hill and there is a tram that will take you up the hill. This tram is called the Petrin Funicular. The electric cable car runs every day from 9:00 am to 11:30 pm (November to March runs until 11:20 pm). It departs every 10-15 minutes.

I bought a ticket and got on the tram. The tram went slowly and there were people with bicycles on board. The tram went up and then stopped. I thought, "Oh, we must have arrived," and jumped off. But when I got off, I realized I was wrong. It was only halfway there. The people who got off at that stop either went for a walk or went to a restaurant. It was quite high up when I looked down. So I waited for the next tram. I got off at the wrong stop. I thought I wouldn't get lost anymore.

Waiting for the tram, I took some photos. This is a restaurant where people come to relax.

The tram is here, yay! Let's get on and go to the end of the line. We'll walk around the park before going up the tower. It's a rose garden, the roses are beautiful and the flowers are huge. I wonder if anyone will give me a bouquet of roses? Hehe, I'm daydreaming again.

This is a big flower like this. In our house, it's not easy to find big roses, right?

I strolled through the garden before going up the tower. I thought this might be an observatory, but I didn't go in to check. It would be lonely to stargaze alone, wouldn't it? Hehe.


This guy is standing in front of the observatory, looking cool like an astronaut. But honestly, I have no idea what building it is, I'm just guessing.


This part should be a church, I guess again, oh, I don't have enough information, I'm sorry. I've read it before and I've really forgotten.


Okay, it's time to climb the Petrin Tower. Here's some information from the internet:


The Petrin Lookout Tower is a 60-meter-tall steel tower built in 1891 by F. Prasil to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the General Land Centennial Exhibition. It was modeled after the Eiffel Tower in Paris and has 299 steps to the top platform.

There is a restaurant in front of the entrance, but it was closed when we went there. I don't know why.


I know I won't remember the price, so I took a picture of it. The price is as shown in the picture. Let me tell you that I have a severe fear of heights, so I wouldn't be able to walk up. I'm scared of heights! I decided to buy the lift even though it was a bit expensive. P.S. On the way down, I was going to walk down, but when I saw the steep stairs, I was afraid of falling and dying. I haven't gotten married yet. I don't want to die yet.


And then came the highlight that I've been wanting to see for a long time, I've only seen it in other people's pictures, postcards, magazines, and finally I saw it with my own eyes OMG!! O_o My God, it's so beautiful that I can't even describe it. It's so much better than seeing it in pictures. The red roofs, the Charles Bridge in the distance, wowwwww!


Turn the camera over there. See the Prague Castle. Wow, wow, wow, wow. I can't believe I'm seeing it with my own eyes. We'll go there tomorrow and soak it all in.


The photos don't do justice to the real thing. It's actually much more beautiful. My camera isn't anything special, just a regular compact camera. The only regret I have from this trip is that I don't have many photos of myself. I don't know how to take them when I'm alone. This is the real downside. In this photo, you can see St. Nicholas Church on the left.


Immerse yourself in the view and then come down, you won't regret spending money to see the view. It's so beautiful. Prague is as beautiful as its reputation. When I came down, I took a walk for a while before returning to my accommodation because it was getting dark. This picture is a full picture of what we thought was a church. 555


The palace is really beautiful. I walked around for a while before taking the tram back home. Then I came across this. The Hall of Mirrors. I didn't go in. No, I didn't go in. I'm afraid of seeing myself too many times. I can't take it. Hahaha. Scary.


We then took the tram back to our accommodation, took a shower, relaxed, and looked for something to eat. We will review the food and restaurants we visited separately, so it will be a food post about Prague at the very end. Then we will continue our trip to the magical and magnificent Prague Castle. Kisses, goodbye with a high-angle view of Prague. Looking down, you can see the Vltava River and the bridge over the river.
