The City of Light: A Place Where Mysteries Abound and Alchemy Is Always in the Air in Prague
I fell head over heels with Prague on a misty fall morning when the sun's rays briefly touched the Charles Bridge's spires. Like something out of a fairy tale, the city unfurled before my eyes - a maze of winding alleys, majestic plazas crowned with baroque sculptures, and bridges woven with tales passed down through the ages.
Prague, though, is more than simply a picture-perfect vacation spot. Cobblestone streets and twisted rooftops betray a city whose electrifying vitality is contagious.
