Petřín Hill

On Saturday, Katie and I trucked up to Petřín Hill to see what is supposed to be the best view of Prague.  After having been there, I would definitely have to agree.  It was a really gorgeous day (Blue skies!), so we were both really looking forward to it.  Enjoy!


Very excited about waiting for the tram!

The entrance to the FUNicular to the top of the hill


The funicular


Prague


Prague and funicular tracks (I really enjoy the word funicular.  Funicular.)


Different Prague view


Observation tower that looks like the Eiffel Tower.   It used to be their communication tower.


Sad gardens in the middle of winter


Segways!


Observatory


Me and my boyfriend


Nice sculpture


Monastery?  Not really sure...


Another angle


Can't you see how excited Katie is to get back on the funicular?

Sculpture near the tram station that I'm still not sure what it is
