Often called “Lesser Town”, the area’s name comes from its position on the west bank of the Vltava River, just below the Prague Castle and its grounds, and across the Charles Bridge from the larger New and Old Town areas.</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">Though the district is one of the oldest in Prague, Baroque architecture dominates the area due to fires destroying much of the original architecture in 1541. The area offers a nice retreat from the hustle and bustle across the bridge, with lots of picturesque alleyways and winding cobblestone streets.</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">Visitors to the area should be sure to check out Wallenstein Palace, a wonderful Baroque era building with five courtyards and a French-style garden. The palace currently houses the Czech Senate. Among the many churches in Malá Strana, St. Nicholas Church is perhaps the finest and most prominent with its wonderful apotheosis of St. Nicholas set in the dome of the church.</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">Any trip to Prague must include a stroll across the Charles Bridge to the quiet charm and beauty of the Lesser Quarter.”</span></p><p class="ql-block"><a href="https://www.welcometoprague.eu/lesser-quarter" target="_blank" style="font-size:20px;">The Lesser Quarter 介紹</a></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">住處MOOo by the Castle 別致的院子布置。細(xì)心的旅館人員還給我們手寫歡迎卡片以及送了紅酒??。</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">布置精心的Apartments，令人不愿離開。寫了Google、 booking、trip advisor review。</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">前臺可以幫助叫出租，但Bolt更便宜又快捷。</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">3/11/2023 早上獨自走到Prague Castle，空無一人。 </span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">St. Vitus Cathedral：看介紹早七點有mass，但或許7:30已經(jīng)結(jié)束，或許我沒找到入口，沒看到。3/8/2023已經(jīng)來過一次，那時工作人員正準(zhǔn)備第二天總統(tǒng)就職（后續(xù)）。</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">料峭春寒，還有小雪花飄下。在Castle頂部看Lesser Quarter紅屋頂?shù)木爸拢趺纯匆部床粔?，不禁再次感嘆雖然捷克近百年來幾易其手，統(tǒng)治者（入侵者）并未毀壞歷代建筑，使得布拉格成為歐洲最吸引世界各地旅游者的城市之一。</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">從Castle頂部看Lesser Town全景</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">建筑微雕公園</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">望著St Nicholas教堂圓頂從Castle走回中心，進(jìn)星巴克小憩，等早九點剛開門就進(jìn)去，沒有游客，因?qū)@些精美的雕塑、壁畫等等一時間不夠了解，只能看個大概，留底以后學(xué)習(xí)吧。</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">?布拉格游記以倒敘開始，待慢慢回味，以饗讀者。</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">圣尼古拉教堂內(nèi)部小視頻</span></p> <p class="ql-block">Castle </p> <p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:20px;">布拉格被稱為City of 1000 Spires 大概來源于St Vitus Cathedral 的尖塔。</span></p>
