Old Town Square in Prague,64 viewsThe Wanderer’s June 11 Edition in the Old Town Square in Prague, Czechia. The tower is part of the Old Town Hall and was built in 1364. It has survived much upheaval, war, and occupation, and stands as a testament to the Czech people, who have brought back color to the city once hailed as “Paris of the East.” I was not able to actually read this edition outdoors in the square, as the European heatwave bested me.
