Province of Ende Flores island, East Nusa Tenggara exists an architectural ensemble of three exotic natural lakes identical, side by side, but always bring different colors. Three lakes are located at an altitude of 1,690 m above the top of Kelimutu volcano.

 
Local people believe that this is the resting place of the ancestral spirits, so they named the three lakes. Two adjacent lake called "Lake mesmerizing" and "Lake boys and girls", with green and copper red. Way beyond Lake in blue titled "Ho old people."
 Over time, three lakes alternately bring different colors like green, blue, red, copper or even gray. Legend says that the lake here discoloration depends on the mood of the ancestral spirits are local shelter here.

Take in Prague, the city of gold charms

►
Prague is the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic. The Prague proudly call this city one of the most beautiful and sexiest European.
Traces Soviet
Prague is known for 18 bridge that spans the Vltava river, on both sides is the ancient cathedral dome, the gilded spiers atop the castle thousands of years old-style Roman, Gothic and rivers soft winding through the city.
Known as the Golden City, the Prague is proud to call this one of the most beautiful and charming cities in Europe, Prague has attracted millions of visitors each year, and is awarded for the beauty of such "city of gold", "crown of the world", "city of hundred towers peak" ... And like Rome was built on seven hills, Prague was built on nine hills along the Vltava River.

Prague Castle is over 1000 years old ancient castle in the world wide.
Prague was founded on the intersection of ancient trade routes, the crossroads of cultures and different faiths.

I went to the hostel (hostel) "Mr. Tobby "right near the center. Looking from the lounge window, Prague still bears traces of the former Soviet Union with the big poster of him in the side, her hand workers to fight and win, next to the hammer and sickle flag.
The most interesting is that when walking down the backyard garden to enjoy morning coffee, I discovered all discussed here are "improvements" from the old fashioned sewing machine foot socialist. Not understanding this is a classic décor with intent, or the way people take advantage of the dishes are still spending but do not want to throw away? Vietnamese friends in Prague over the inn welcomed me and said they have been trying to Prague a big beer, enjoying coffee on the "dancing building" and go to see fortune! I am excited beyond words for the offer very attractive!
Astronomical clock - a symbol of the city of Prague.
Enjoy the city on "Dancing Building"
The Czech Republic considers the beers produced locally is the asset of the country. Certainly the name Beer Czechoslovakia is no stranger to the Vietnamese people, because most delicious beers here are perfect, it's hard to compare and find the best kind. Some beers, such as Pilsner Urquell and Kozel has won awards at the "beer contest" in the world.
A friend took me to the famous brasserie U FLEKU address at 11 Krememcova city. This is the neck of the Czech beer is from 1499, with wood-paneled walls, decorative lighting and glass with beer of course only sell a single stout cook so consistent. Do not dare to drink a lot because I know that in the land of beer as air to breathe every day, we will be too many beers to enjoy.
Go to Prague and Czech beer - the pride of the local people.
Enjoy a cup of coffee on the top floor of "Dancing Building" (the dancing house) is one of the most interesting experiences in Prague. The house is a major surprises and controversial world architecture, designed by "exotic", "distorted" between the overall design of the classic Gothic Prague.
You need to see this building from every angle, from a distance, up close, many people say that, when looking at the building, they feel like people are drunk. I drink a cup of coffee on the balcony of the building, watching the river city and the distance, a feeling not easily forgotten.
See the city from the Royal Palace.
Surely people go to fortune in Prague as I do not have to consider how their destiny, but to enjoy the paranormal in 14-15 century costume dramas.
If you've seen the movie about European nomads, you will see images of bohemian girl, wrapped full of clothes and jewelry in person, very dark makeup, and a red ruffled hair, sat the crystal ball, or see only the hands and predict future destiny. Is from the Bohemian capital to a kingdom before Republic was born.
In Prague, if you go into one of the narrow alleys, you will find quite a lot of signposts to the "fortune teller" is. Many are clearly signposted "we speak English, French," to serve tourists.
Some of the Gypsy fortuneteller shop.
A billboard fortunetelling.
The Bridge
Some other famous places in Prague who also can not be ignored, it's Charles Bridge (Vietnam where people go to school, work a few decades ago it was named The Bridge). This is the oldest bridge in Prague, built in 1342, with 16 spans, is decorated with 30 statues of religious, formerly named Stone Bridge or Prague Bridge, between 1870 and renamed Charles Bridge.
It is said that, when the bridge, they had to add egg yolks to add mortar to make sure. Maybe the bridge was still standing after more than 650 years, gone through the rainy season and is the oldest stone bridge in Europe is still used. Both sides of the bridge are two forts, connecting the two parts of the city - a city of Prague stock half and half new city.
Evening is the best time and the most poetic of Prague, end of the day the sun shines on the yellow brick making bridges and roads glowing like gold, so people tend to be Prague called "city of gold ".
Along the bridge, street musicians playing stringed instruments, besides the old doctor castigate each artist drawing a portrait on red-haired girl, young boys dressed in sailor was offering the tour river cruises, and most beautiful scene lovers had another look at the sunset on the river sunset light gleaming.
The couple on the Charles Bridge.
Vietnamese market in Prague
With the Vietnamese to Prague, can not visit Sapa market. In the Czech Republic, Vietnam has more than 83,000 people live and work, mostly in Prague. The Vietnamese people have formed Sapa Trade Center (known relatives of the Sapa market) for exchanging and trading items is Vietnam. This area is not only fair, but also restaurants, beauty shops, services, schools, kindergartens, temples Vietnam style.
In the Sapa market, you can find anything from clothing, home decorations, toys ... the vegetables, sauce, frozen shrimp, dried fish, tea, rice, tofu, prices park, even ... bun cha, dog meat. This is an ideal place for someone to enjoy the taste of Vietnam when away from home. However, the people here are mostly Vietnamese, but perennial here, but quite limited in Czech and English, resulting in the ability to integrate real life, or the development of other industries foreign trade is rare.
Travells at Prada have much left in me missed. I really fell in love with Prague, a general peace, interference of Eastern culture and Western, a beautiful city and yet gentle heart.
