Many cities have stunning landmarks that help to make them famous. Tourists busy themselves with such landmarks as the skyline of New York, Hong Kong or Buenos Aires and forget all about the city's humble or imperial rooftops.
Built on seven hills more than 1000 years ago, Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic in the heart of Europe, has one of the most impressive roof lines in the world which can be viewed from many points in the city. One of them is Petrín Hill in the Castle area where you can take a break from the bustling city below and enjoy an incredible vista of the city.
Prague is a magical town with rooftops as storytellers. It has innumerable sites of unbelievable beauty that tourist guides can only aspire to describe. Few of them will say anything about the rooftops, but the roof tops are worth contemplating because by doing so, one can also glimpse a little of Prague's history and begin to understand its plight in the 20th century.
