Hello everyone! This is @ybanezkim26 and I'll be presenting today's edition of #TravelDigest. There are so many good entries today! In our featured posts, we have a bridge in Prague, the capital of Czechia, some awesome landscapes in the mountains of Cebu, Philippines, and a temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Enjoy!
The bridge spans across Vltava river and connects old town with the lesser town. It consists of 16 pointed arches, a classical style of Gothic architecture. On each side of the bridge is a huge, beautiful tower, decorated with interesting ornaments, that serve as a gate. Along the bridge you can see 30 different statues placed on each side. As you walk across it feels like you are going through a museum of history. Status depict saints and religious figures and each has a unique story. Interestingly, they vary in color and tone. Most of them are added in 17th and 18th century and since then experienced floods and other damages (Vltava river is known for frequent floods during rainy seasons).
It's not my first time to climb uphill going up to this distant village but it didn't fail to capture my eyes as I pass by this area. The lush vegetation and the green surroundings will surely calm your perplexed spirit!
