Prošli vikend na red je došla Češka - Telč, Prag i Krumlov. Četiri prekrasna dana, ali premalo da biste vidjeli sve što želite. Danas ću vam pisati o Telču i prvom pravom danu u Pragu. Četvrtak ne računam jer sam od Praga vidjela samo hotel i Chodov trgovački centar gdje sam s mamom krenula u potragu za kavom :)
Last weekend I was in Czech Republic. I visited Telč, Prague and Krumlov. Four beautiful day, but too short. Today I will write you about Telč and first day in Prague. I won`t count Thursday because we arrived in hotel and we just saw Chodov shopping center where we just drank coffee.
Prvi postaja - Telč. Mali gradić na rijeci Jihlavi smješten u južnoj Moravskoj. Grad je osnovan u 13. stoljeću, a povijesno središte grada je trg s prekrasnim baroknim i renesansim kućama. Svaka kuća je druge boje ukrašena s različitim motivima. Kada stanete pored Kugine fontane i pogledate uokolo imate osjećaj kao da ste se našli na pozornici neke talijanske predstave, jer su ga gradili talijanski renesansi majstori. Telč je 1992. uvršten na Popis svjetske kulturne baštine, a čula sam i komentare da jako podsjeća na naš Samobor. Da li je tako, prosudite po slikama. Ako ga odlučite posjetiti Telč obavezno ponesite fotoaparate jer je jako fotogeničan.
Telč was first city that we saw. Little city near river Jihlava situated in south Moravska. The city was established in13th century. The historical center of town is square with the beautiful baroque and renaissance houses. Each house is different color with different finery. When you stand in center of square, next the Kuga fountains, you have feeling like you are on stage of Italian histrionics, because houses were build by Italian renaissance artists. Telč was listed in 1992. on UNESCO`s The world heritage lists. If you decide visit Telč be sure to bring your camera because it is very photogenic.

Sljedeća destinacija je bila Prag. Stari šarmer u kojem su dom našle i romanika i gotika, gdje je svaka zgrada prekrasna na svoj način, gdje u jednoj ulici možete vidjeti sve oblike arihitekture. Da budem iskrena prvi dan u Prag uopće me nije oduševio. Zašto? Jer smo 4 sata trčali za vodičkom kroz horde svih ostalih turista koji su također željeli vidjeti Hradčane s kraljevskom palačom i Zlatnom ulicom. Ali kasnije je sve sjelo na svoje mjesto i Prag nas je zaveo. Na Karlov most vam preporučam da dođete rano ujutro oko 9 kada još nema toliko turista i kada ćete imati priliku proučiti svaki kip i ovjekovječiti ga na fotografijama bez milijun ljudi okolo (kao što je na mojoj slici). Prag kao i mnogi europski gradovi ima Židovsku četvrt u samom centru nedaleko od Vaclavske namesti (glavni trg u Pragu) u kojoj se nalaze mnogobrojne sinagoge pa i ona najstarija u Europi te židovsko groblje.
Next destination was Prague - the old charmer which is the home of the Romanesque and Gothic style, where every building is beautiful in its own way, where in one street you can see all kinds of architecture. To be honest first day I was not impressed. Why? Because we were running 4 hours for tourist guide through the hordes of other tourists who also like to see Hradcany with the Royal palace and with Golden Street. But later everything fell into place and we were seduced by Prague. I recommend that you arrive early in the morning, around 9, in Charles Bridge when there aren`t so many tourists and when you have opportunity to see every statue and take picture of it without million peoples around (like on my photography). Prague has beautiful Jewish quarter in center, near by Wenceslas Square (main square in Prague) in which there are numerous synagogues (the oldest one in Europe) and the Jewish cemetery.

U Pragu nećete naći kafiće na svakom koraku kao kod nas. U kvartu Chodov gdje smo bili smješteni nema niti jednog kafića, ali ni dućana. Što kad im nestane šećera, a peku kolač??? Ali svi znamo da je Prag poznat po pivu, te je zato na svakom koraku pivnica, a skoro sve nude tradicionalna češka jela. Obavezno probajte Češke knedle. Mene nisu oduševile jer moja Češka strana obitelji radi bolje, ali ni ove nisu loše. Da se vratimo na kavu ili ju pijte u Starbucks-u, Costi ili jednostavno u kafiću naručite cappucino ili caffe latte jer macchiato ili expresso su jednostavno loši. Ako postoji mjesto gdje je macchiato ok u Pragu, molim uputite me jer ja ga nisam našla. OBAVEZNO probajte Trdelnik - okruglo pecivo, unutra šuplje, koje možete jesti prazno ili punjeno s Nutellom - prefino (ima cimeta u njemu).
In Prague you will not found caffe bars at every turn, like in Croatia. We stayed in hotel in Quarter Chodov and in our neighborhood there were no coffee bars or markets. What they do when they run out of sugar and they bake cake??? But we all know that Prague is famous for beer and in every corner is pub and almost all offering traditional Czech dishes. Be sure to try the Czech dumplings. I was not thrilled because my Czech side of the family made betters, but even these are not bad. To return to the coffee, or drink it at Starbucks, Costa or in the bars simple order cappuccino or caffe latte because espresso and macchiato are simply bad. If there is a place where macchiato is ok in Prague, please direct me, because I have not found it. When you are in Prague you must try Trdelnik - round cakes, hollow inside, which you can eat empty or filled with Nutella - it´s delicious (has cinnamon in it).

A sad ono najbitnije - shoping. Suvenire vam preporučujem da kupujte na tržnici u Havelskoj ulici (dvije ulice dalje od Vaclavske namesti), isti proizvodi, a jeftiniji su nego po suvenirnicama. Na Vaclavskoj namesti i ulici Na prikope pronaći ćete vodeće high street brandove (Zara, Forever21 i ostale). Ulica Na Prikope vodi do trgovačkog centra koji se nalazi u bivšoj Sovjetskoj vojarni gdje možete pronaći još veći izbor dućana.
Now, what is most important - shopping. I recommend you that souvenirs buy at the market in Havelska Street (two blocks away from Wenceslas Square), same souvenirs are cheaper than at souvenir shops. On Wenceslas Square and Na Prikope street you will find high street brands stores (Zara, Forever21 and others). Na Prikope street leading to the shopping center located in the former Soviet barracks where you can find an even larger selection of shops.

Sljedeći put ću vam pisati o tome čime me je Prag osvojio i o Krumlovu, još jednim štičenikom UNESCO-a.
Do sljedećeg posta, ljubim vas...
Next time I will write you about have Prague thrilled me and about beautiful Krumlov.
Till next post from Prague, kisses...
