Look both ways and RUN!

 CAUTION! Dangerous crossing

This is in Benešov where the only way to get from the main entrance of a large public park into town is to cross a busy thoroughfare. There’s no crosswalk here. Just an opening in the wall on the other side.

Retro Metro

I was recently in the Dejvická metro station and the colors inside caught my eye.  The station has a retro look, but that is because it has not changed since it was built.  Dejvická is a part of Prague’s second metro line, which opened on August 12, 1978.

The O2 Bridge

I wrote about the rebranding campaign of Telefónica O2 in a previous post.  As a part of their advertising, they even painted a bridge in Prague (Štefánikův most).

A Day Without Cars

September 16, 2006 By Dana Leave a Comment

The European Mobility Week is taking place in Prague from today through September 22. A “Day Without Cars” (Den bez aut) is scheduled for tomorrow although it really started today at 2 p.m. when the Národní divadlo – Staroměstská – Palachovo náměstí – Mánesův most route was closed to regular traffic. It will remain closed until 4 p.m. on Sunday. Jeff and I were at the Rudolfinum right after 2 p.m. and we were lucky to catch a bunch of trams arriving and lining up on the bridge for today’s tram exhibition.
