Walking loops in Staré Město, Prague
The astronomical clock performs on the hour and the crowd that gathers is always larger than you expect for a six-hundred-year-old mechanism with wooden apostles. Old Town Square's architecture spans centuries without apology — Gothic spires beside baroque facades beside Art Nouveau shopfronts. The lanes radiating outward twist without logic, and getting deliberately lost is the only honest navigation strategy. At night the stone buildings hold the day's heat and the gas lamps actually work, casting yellow light on worn cobblestones.
