Secret Prague - Martin Stejskal - Jonglez - broché - Guide

Far from the crowds and familiar clichés, Prague still hides an extraordinary wealth of secrets, revealing a surprising and lesser-known side of the city only to those who venture off the beaten path. This guide brings together some of Prague's most intriguing hidden elements: an overlooked Art Nouveau masterpiece, a forgotten Cubist lamppost, alchemical legends from the castle, the concealed palindrome of Charles Bridge, the mystical echoes of Jewish Kabbalah and the desiccated hand of a thief preserved in a church. It also highlights unusual curiosities such as a statue with open intestines, the supposed dwelling of Prague's Quasimodo, the country's largest aerodynamic tunnel, a fragment of the Great Pyramid in a dog cemetery, a backward-running clock and a house-museum painted blue for its nearly blind musician owner. A rich and surprising portrait of Prague beyond its iconic landmarks.
