Get Saucy at the Sex Machines Museum
Love sex? Love gadgets? Errr, then we are
pretty sure that you’ll be head over heels for the Sex Machines Museum, the
only museum in the world that is dedicated to sexual gadgetry. There are more
than 200 devices located in the museum, including some items that are dated way
back to the 16th century. You’ll be able to find shoes worn by ancient Greek
prostitutes, iron corsets, dildos from centuries gone by, and lots more
kinkiness besides. Leave the kids at home for this one, eh?
Be Wowed by a Masterpiece of Cubist Design
The Czech Republic was one of the most
important centres for the Cubist art movement in the world at the beginning of
the 20th century, and this is evident when you spot the Cubist buildings on the
streets of Prague. But there is no building in the Czech Cubist tradition that
is quite as captivating as the House of the Black Madonna. The building was
designed by Josef Gocar and it places Baroque design inside a Cubist context,
so you have the best of both Czech design worlds.
Enjoy Music With Your Drink at Bajkazyl
Bajkazyl is one of those local gems of Prague
that you just wouldn’t know about unless a local person took you there.
Fortunately, you have us to tell you what’s hot! This bar is right on the
riverside and it manages the balance of being fun but tranquil at the same time
really well. You can also rent bikes here, but the highlight has to be the live
music shows that are staged outside by the river on most nights of the week.
Say Hi to the Animals at Prague Zoo
If you are an animal lover, you probably often
the face the dilemma of whether or not you should visit zoos. On the one hand,
you want to see the animals, and on the other, you can’t always be sure if the
animals are looked after adequately or not. Prague Zoo has been open since 1931,
and its objectives were not to entertain, but to protect wildlife, advance
zoology, and educate the public. Inside the zoo you can find red pandas, the
endangered Chinese giant salamanders, Komodo dragons, and brown fur seals.
Allow Your Jaw to Drop at the Klementinum Historic Complex
The Klementinum is a complex of buildings that
was built in the mid 13th century, and that makes it the most historic building
complex in the city’s Old Town. The series of beautiful baroque and rococo
halls now mainly play host to the Czech National Library. Some buildings are
closed but you are free to walk through the gardens and to tour the baroque
library hall, which will surely make your jaw drop all the way to the floor.
