This is is mounted on the Southern wall of the Old Town Hall in the Old Town Square and is one of the outstanding sights of Prague. The dial is poised with three main components: the astronomical dial that displays various astronomical details as well as representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky; «The Walk of the Apostles», showcases the movement of the figures of Twelve Apostles passing along the two windows in every hour of daylight; and a calendar dial that rotates and gives the description of each and every day of the year with an indication of the current date at the top, the medallions with zodiac signs describing every month and a symbol of the Old Town in the centre Real history of the Astronomical ClockThe real author of the clock was discovered in 1961 in an old document, which describes the astronomical dial and says it was made by Mikulas of Kadan in 1410. He probably cooperated with the astronomer and Charles University professor Jan Sindel. The Astronomical Clock was repaired and improved by Jan Taborsky in the 16 th century. However, it became very faulty as time went by, and it was mostly out of order. It was even considered whether it should be liquidated in the 1780s. The clock soon stopped working for a long time. The major repair was inevitable and it came in 1865. The clock was modernized and a new Calendar Dial was painted by Josef Manes. In 1945 the German army damaged the Astronomical Clock and some of the statues burned. They were replaced by replicas later, and the striking of the clock was changed from the Old Czech Time to the Central European Time.

У каждого из нас могут быть свои впечатления от путешествий и встреч с новыми городами. Рассказ о Праге (Prague) на английском языке включает пять достопримечательностей, понравившихся автору. Читайте также нашу статью про Египет на английском.
Prague, my dear Prague…
I always experience a whole load of feelings here: from laughter, disgust, admiration, astonishment or surprise; it’s true, you can be amazed and rationally challenged everywhere.
Прага, моя дорогая Прага … Я всегда испытываю здесь массу чувств: смех, отвращение, восхищение, изумление или удивление; это правда, вы можете быть изумленным и немного озадаченным повсюду.
Example one:
When I arrived in Prague, I wanted to buy a weekly ticket for public transport. The middle-aged saleswoman was switching between several languages so easily (those I could hear were Czech, Russian, English & German) and managing to answer some very difficult questions without any hesitation (!).
Когда я приехал в Прагу, я хотел купить недельный билет на общественный транспорт. Продавщица средних лет так легко переключалась между несколькими языками (я слышал чешский, русский, английский и немецкий), и могла без колебаний ответить на некоторые очень сложные вопросы (!).
Example two:
I stayed in a relatively old building which surprisingly had a super-modern lift with touch-screen buttons and glass walls, but the lift stopped between floors so you still had to walk up some stairs (?).
Я остановился в относительно старом здании, в котором неожиданно был суперсовременный лифт с сенсорными кнопками и стеклянными стенами, но лифт останавливался между этажами, поэтому вам все равно приходилось подниматься по лестнице (?).
Example three:
You can find bars where your chosen meal options will be charged by weight (tip: choose lighter dishes to pay less!).
Вы можете найти бары, где выбранные вами блюда будут расценены по весу (подсказка: выбирайте более легкие блюда, чтобы платить меньше!)
Example four:
As the Czech Republic is a small country, there are certain customs based on trust, e.g. there are no tube barriers in Prague, but obviously, you’re still obliged to buy your commuting tickets!
Поскольку Чешская Республика является небольшой страной, существуют определенные обычаи, основанные на доверии, например, в Праге нет барьеров в метро, но, очевидно, вы по-прежнему обязаны покупать билеты на поездку!
Example five:
We visited Prague in December. The city was beautifully decorated and some squares (including the main square) had nativity scenes, but with real animals, e.g. sheep, goats and a pony.
Мы посетили Прагу в декабре. Город был красиво оформлен, а на некоторых площадях (включая главную площадь) были сцены Рождества, но с настоящими животными, например, с овцами, козами и пони.
Personally, I love those paradoxes, but now let’s move to my 5 best of Prague.
Лично мне нравятся такие парадоксы, но давайте перейдем к моей лучшей пятерке Праги.
Josefov & Spanish Synagogue
Josefov. The Old Jewish Quarter. I’m in love with this part of Prague. It’s magical, charismatic and has amazing architecture. It’s a perfect location for wondering around and admiring the beautiful buildings. If you’re in Josefov, you may want to visit the Old Jewish Cemetery and the synagogues. The Spanish Synagogue stole my heart. It isn’t so well presented form outside, but inside it has a breath-taking interior.
Йозефов. Старый еврейский квартал. Я влюблен в эту часть Праги. Он волшебный, харизматичный и имеет удивительную архитектуру. Это идеальное место для размышлений и восхищения красивыми зданиями. Если вы в Йозефове, вы можете посетить Старое еврейское кладбище и синагоги. Испанская синагога покорила мое сердце. Она не так хорошо выглядит снаружи, но внутри у нее интерьер, который захватывает дух.
Theatre Stavovské divadlo
Prague has many cultural pearls: the National Threatre, the Rudolfinum Concert Hall, the Klementinum Old Library, and amongst others, the Stavovské divadlo theatre situated in the Old Town. Established and working since 1783, this theatre has an impressive design, both interior and exterior and the great repertoire on offer makes it a perfect place to visit. Interestingly, the premières of Mozart’s Don Giovanni and La Clamenza di Tito took place in this very theatre where the Czech director Miloš Forman also filmed the concert scenes of his Oscar-winning film Amadeus.
В Праге много культурных жемчужин: национальный театр Праги, концертный зал Рудольфинум, старая библиотека Клементинум и, среди прочих, Ставовский театр, расположенный в Старом городе. Основанный в 1783 году и работающий с тех пор, этот театр имеет впечатляющий дизайн, как внутри, так и снаружи, а также предлагает отличный репертуар, что делает его идеальным местом для посещения. Интересно, что именно в этом театре состоялись премьеры «Дон Жуана» и «Милосердие Тито» Моцарта, где чешский режиссер Милош Форман также снял концертные сцены своего фильма «Амадеус», удостоенного Оскара.
Convent of Saint Agnes
Prague has many art galleries, but I was truly amazed by the Convent of Saint Agnes, a gallery with medieval art and an impressive collection of artefacts. The gallery is located in one of the oldest Gothic buildings in Prague, the monastery of Poor Clares of the Order of Saint Clare and Franciscans which was founded in around 1231.
В Праге много художественных галерей, но я был действительно поражен Анежским монастырем, галереей средневекового искусства и впечатляющей коллекции артефактов. Галерея расположена в одном из старейших готических зданий в Праге, монастыре Бедных Кларсов Ордена Сен-Клэр и францисканцев, который был основан примерно в 1231 году.
Public transport in Prague
I was so impressed by the public transport in Prague! It was punctual, clean and amazingly connected between train, tube, bus and tram. I bought a three-day pass and could travel with no limits for 72 hours in the city centre. If I wanted to go to the zoo, for example, I took a tube train and then a bus and the bus stop was situated just by the tube station and the whole journey was super short. Very efficient!
Я был так впечатлен общественным транспортом в Праге! Он был пунктуальным, чистым и удивительно стыковался между поездом, метро, автобусом и трамваем. Я купил трехдневный пропуск и мог путешествовать без ограничений в течение 72 часов в центре города. Если бы я хотел пойти в зоопарк, например, я бы поехал на метро, а затем на автобусе, а автобусная остановка расположена как раз на станции метро, и вся поездка была бы очень короткой. Очень эффективно!
Spiced Hot Apple Cider
If you go to a cafe you might be surprised by the wide offer of beverages you can have. I visited Prague in winter, so there were many hot drink options (both alcoholic and non-) to taste. I particularly enjoyed the warm apple juice with spices: pressed apple juice, ground spices & cloves; simmer all for a few minutes until hot, done!
Если вы пойдете в кафе, вы можете быть удивлены широким предложением напитков. Я посетил Прагу зимой, поэтому было много вариантов горячих напитков (как алкогольных, так и безалкогольных) по вкусу. Я особенно наслаждался теплым яблочным соком со специями: концентрированный яблочный сок, молотые специи и гвоздика; медленно подогреть все в течение нескольких минут до горячего, готово!
