Prague 3: Charles Bridge

This is the place to be seen in Prague (if you are a tourist - I doubt the locals go anywhere near it). As you cross it you pass a series of statues of different saints, on both sides of the bridge. And lots of portrait sketching or busking musicians. While we were there, about half of one side of the bridge was behind fencing and plastic sheeting for repair. This channelled the pedestrian crowd into an even narrower passage and hid a number of the saints. Needless to say, most of the crowd just ignored the saints.

The Calvary half way across the bridge is particularly lovely. My apologies to the group for catching them in the photo - but my other photo clipped the top off the crucifix.

As we came off the bridge, a pigeon posed for a photo opportunity.
