Like nearly everything in Prague, the gate beautiful. Even simple things that are merely functional in most places, will be designed with care and astounding detail in this city.
After admiring the gate we had to see where the corridor led and we were glad we did. Many of the shops in Wenceslas Square sell cheap trinkets and blast bad music as you weave your way past American fast food chains. Not very appealing at all.
However, at the end of the alleyway was a wonderful shop selling traditional Czech egg ornaments. This one in the photo was a giant replica sitting in the courtyard.
I wanted to bring home so many, but alas we only had backpacks and no room for souvenirs.
