Here's a look at the southern end of Wenceslas Square (Václavské námêstí), a place where huge crowds would turn out during major historical events, filling the promenade from the Národní Muzeum, past the Grand Hotel Europa. Magnificent Art Nouveau buildings feature rooftops populated by statues.
Since Czech has become a free nation, the living history mingles with modern art in the streets and a new commercialism is being reinforced by tourism.
Splat!
