The Vltava River of Prague

The Vltava River flows through the centre of Prague, and is the waterway around which the city has developed over the past 1000 years. The Old Town and the New Town lie on one side of the Vltava River. On the other bank is the Lesser Town and Prague Castle, which is a magnificent sight from the water. Spanning the two sides, in the heart of Prague, is Charles Bridge, a pedestrian crossing and focal point for visitors to the city. From Charles Bridge, the panoramic views over the river and of the historic buildings running along its banks are unrivalled. Take a leisurely stroll across the bridge, then take a river cruise under it, to enjoy two unique perspectives of Prague. Another way to immerse yourself in the beauty of the Prague river scene is to dine at one of the riverside restaurants, some of which boast fine terraces looking out over the water.

Completed in 1910 and designed by architect Gottlieb Redecker, this church has become a central landmark in Windhoek. The unique red-tiled roof, stunning stained-glass windows, and commanding presence in the heart of the city make the Christuskirche not only a place of worship but also a testament to the historical and cultural tapestry of Namibia.
