Every one has a reason why he want to visit such cities,
The group of AU pairs from Munich, Germany made a trip this weekend in Prague. 6 boys with 14 girls, Maximum age is 27.
It was the best affair for the group , grouping from the transport to the bed rooms.
No one visited the Ice pub in Prague near the charles bridge, It has minues -7 degree room Temperatur , There people went to drink a beer costs 150 Koruna, CZ currency, After the enterance fee of 200 CZ,k.
In this Ice pub works an Ethiopian student , He is the second Ethiopian I met in the weekend in Prage. On Saturday Evening I have met Mohamed Ethiopian working in a Kebab house, kiosk owned by Egyptian.
The second most funny part was searching the paris Eiffel Tower in Prague, A russian girl from the group of 7 suggested there is a tower near Petrine Cathedral in Prague....then we started walking in a dusk full of raining light.
What we got after a hill walking tour of 2 hour is normal electric pole......lol. But after this Area called Stadiom some of us suggested to walk more and Finnaly we got the Paris Eiffel Tower in north of Prague.
The Petřín Lookout Tower (Czech: Petřínská rozhledna) is a 63.5-metre-tall steel-framework tower in Prague, which strongly resembles the Eiffel Tower. The Petřínská rozhledna was built in 1891 and was used as an observation tower as well as a transmission tower. Today the Petřínská rozhledna is a major tourist attraction. The hill is roughly a half-hour walk up paths (which gets quite slippery in the snow) and the tower is a shorter but fairly tiring climb; however, the hill is served by a frequent funicular and the tower has an elevator for disabled people. In 2014 the tower was visited by more than 557,000 visitors, with foreigners accounting for over 70% of said visitors. But we were the only strangers in the area and some suggested we as if we were the only visitors of the tower in the year.It was 19:30 O'clock.The two observation platforms are accessible via 299 stairs in sections of 13 per flight running around the inside of the structure. A pair of staircases form a double-helix structure allowing visitors travelling up and down concurrently.In contrast to the Eiffel Tower, Petřínská rozhledna has an octagonal, not square, cross-section. Further, it does not stand, as does the Eiffel Tower, on four columns of lattice steel. The whole area under its legs is covered with the entrance hall.
A similarity between the Eiffel Tower and Petřínská rozhledna is the design of the lowest cross beams in the form of round bones.
