yes, indeed, this one is surely an appealing and charming town. It must be quite pleasant place to live in. This march I go to Prague, but later I plan a through Czech republique trip. This town is surely to be visited.

I never knew about the Tiara thing. Do all catholic buildings receive this when the pope visits? Elisabeth loves the tip on the Kolatsche...brings back some yummy memories for her! :)

:-) No idea why banks always buy those houses, but I am glad they keep them beautiful!! The iron works of the medieval well look beautiful.

Beautiful photos and great tips on the amazing buildings in this town! That definitely is a cheap price for the meal you had! Good point on the years of Communist rule inadvertently helping to preserve these wonderful old buildings!!
