EDITORS COMMENTS
Prague, the capital city of the Czech Republic, is renowned for its stunning historical architecture and picturesque location along the winding River Vltava. In this image, the four iconic bridges over the river - Charles Bridge, Karlův Most, in the foreground, followed by the Lesser Town Bridge, the National Technical Museum Bridge, and the Jirásek Bridge - gracefully span the waterway, connecting the Old Town and the Castle District. The Charles Bridge, the oldest and most famous of the four, was built in 1357 and is adorned with 30 baroque statues and sculptures. The bridge's rich history and stunning views of Prague Castle and the Old Town have made it a must-visit destination for tourists and locals alike. The Lesser Town Bridge, also known as the Ungelt Bridge, was built in 1465 and is the oldest stone bridge in Prague. It was once the only bridge connecting the Old Town and the Lesser Town, and was used as a toll bridge. The National Technical Museum Bridge, also known as the Quadrilateral Bridge, was built in 1870 and is the newest of the four bridges. It is a modern, functional bridge, designed to accommodate the increasing traffic demands of the city. The Jirásek Bridge, built in 1910, is a beautiful Art Nouveau bridge that connects the Old Town and the New Town. It is named after the famous Czech writer, Alois Jirásek. This photograph captures the essence of Prague's history and charm, with the four bridges over the River Vltava serving as a testament to the city's enduring beauty and resilience. The image invites us to explore the rich history and culture of this enchanting European city.
