I am currently traveling in Prague in the Czech Republic. While it hasn’t replaced Buenos Aires (yet) as my favorite city in the world to travel to, it’s doing a good job at trying. Truly, one of the world’s great cities, Prague or Praha to the Czechs, has been around for a very long time and a lot of the buildings you see here date from more than 1000 years ago. Among the most impressive among them is the Prague Castle whose foundations were first laid in 870 A.D. More on that in a future post. There are numerous other structures including the famous Charles Bridge across the Vltava that command one’s attention in what Time Out calls “a symphony in stone.” The cobblestone streets add to the magnificence of this ancient city.

One thing you notice as soon as you clear customs at the ultra modern Ruzyně airport is that the Czech women are spectacularly beautiful. I was escorted by one of these beauties to my taxi from the taxi counter at the Arrivals hall. Nowhere else have I seen women of such beauty from all walks of life. And all over the place. I wish I could say the same for men too. The roadside cafes here are meant for people watching more than any other city I have been to. The fact that they dress stylishly every day as I observe on the daily Metro rides, adds to the oomph.
