farmer's market and Wallenstein Palace - 20.10

On Wednesday I went with my art and architecture class to the Wallenstein Palace, originally built as a home by a duke and currently where the senate meets. The destination was chosen to exemplify Renaissance architecture (what we learned in class that day:note the shape of the windows, the arcade). 

owls!

After class, my friend Veronica took me to the weekly farmer's market that is right across the street from her apartment. There was fresh some kind of fish grilling on a flat top. It looked so delicious and fresh we had to get it; a perfect lunch:

Her neighborhood, Vinohrady (Wine-castle) is really cute also. An intense church is located in the same square as the farmer's market:

And it's right by the enormous tower that can be seen in almost every skyline shot of Prague:

The babies crawling up the tower are another sculpture by David Černy.
