Krakow Town Square at Night



I took a side trip to visit friends in Southern Poland this past weekend. I have been to Krakow many times in the last few years so now I don't always remember to take pictures. I took these early on a clear but cold Saturday night of the town square in Krakow. One of the prettiest places in Poland. In the past 4 years I have visited Krakow at least once a year and it had always been full of renovation work so this is the first time with no work... a nice complete beautiful square. Big building in the middle is the famous market building. Was really cold out, near -1c or something so not any people hanging out on the square like in summer.

Out of Praha - Olomouc and Brno

Random pictures from trips in Olomouc and Brno in Moravia province Czech.


This is Olomouc view of cathedral.















Olomouc. Not sure what this represents but caught it with good lights... still -1c out.
















Clock in Olomouc. Rebuilt by the communists after WWII. Can see the workers theme they put on it. Glory be to the Soviet.




















Main square in Brno. Many more pictures to come as many big buildings yet to take pictures of.

To compare Olomouc has population of 100,ooo vs Brno at 400,000+.
