On the Ground

The beer really is cheaper than water and it really is that good — Pilsner Urquell and Kozel were both born in Bohemia and drinking them here in a pub that has been operating since the fifteenth century is not a minor thing. Walk across Charles Bridge at 6am, before anyone else arrives. The old city is baroque to the point of hallucination — every facade in competition with the one beside it. The food scene has moved decisively past svíčková, though svíčková done correctly in a serious restaurant is still worth understanding on its own terms. April weather is genuinely unpredictable — pack for both the cold version and the warm version and accept that you'll probably need both.
