From Amsterdam, we took a practice to Berlin, after which on to Prague. In each cities, we wandered round for a few days, and visited some improbable museums and gardens. You’ve seen these sketches already, so listed below are some I haven’t shared but.

My favourite constructing in Berlin needs to be this Sputnik-era TV tower. (formally known as Berlin Fernsehturm) I particularly preferred the way it seemed associated to the golden orb on the close by cathedral. Each tour information that walked by informed the story of how this tower solid a cross-like shadow on the bottom, and it got here to be often known as the Pope’s Revenge. Perhaps it’s simply me, however I’m all the time suspicious of too-colorful tour information tales.

Prague is gorgeous each which approach you flip. Sadly, we had a really brief time there, which simply means I’ll be heading again, I suppose. That is the Medieval Astronomical Clocktower everybody goes on and on about. It’s lovely (like a lot of the town) and fairly one thing for its time. However if you need a more in-depth have a look at that face, you’re not going to get wherever near it when the sq. is crowded with vacationers ready for it to chime.
