About this title

Synopsis

Explore Prague’s hidden history and secret spots, from alchemists' towers to forgotten cemeteries and wild valleys.

Prague is beautiful and busy in equal measure. With this guidebook visitors can escape the throng and dive into the back streets for a great adventure. Hidden cellars and secret gardens, wild valleys and forgotten cemeteries, royal alchemists and firebrand clerics. From prehistoric man and the Přemyslids to the Communist era and the Velvet Revolution. Locations include the Faust House, the Hunger Wall, the English sewers, and the Alchemists’ Tower. Also the Prague Bambino, a one-armed photographer, the headless knight, and John Lennon’s Wall. The ideal city guide for travellers who want to escape the crowds and go beyond the well-known paths, as well as for those inhabitants who perhaps thought they already knew their city. Published by The Urban Explorer, these city tales from new and unusual perspectives are aimed at independent cultural travellers.
