PRAGUE

Page 2: prague czech republic

Prague. Praha. The name actually  meant  “threshold. Pollina had said the city was a portal between the life of the good and … the other. A city of dark magic, Alessandro had called it.

The streets of Prague were a fantasia scarcely touched by the twenty-first century—or the twentieth or nineteenth, for that matter. It was a city of alchemists and dreamers, its medieval cobbles once trod by golems, mystics, invading armies. Tall houses glowed goldenrod and carmine and eggshell blue, embellished with Rococo plasterwork and capped in roofs of uniform red. Baroque cupolas were the soft green of antique copper, and Gothic steeples stood ready to impale fallen angels. The wind carried the memory of magic, revolution, violins, and the cobbled lanes meandered like creeks. Thugs wore Motzart wigs and pushed chamber music on street corners, and marionettes hung in windows, making the whole city seem like a theater with unseen puppeteers crouched behind velvet.

HISTORY Prague panorama in 1650

World War I ended with the creation of Czechoslovakia. Prague was chosen as its capital and Prague Castle as the seat of president Tomáš Masaryk. In 1993, after the split of Czechoslovakia, Prague became the capital city of the new Czech Republic. From 1995 high rise buildings began to be built in Prague in large quantities. In the late 1990s Prague again became an important cultural centre of Europe.
