Wandering through the narrow cobblestone streets of Prague was like stepping back in time. The Gothic architecture, the charm of the Old Town Square, and the serenity of the Charles Bridge at sunrise left an indelible mark on my heart. The intricate details of each building told stories of a bygone era, sparking endless inspiration. Can't wait to explore more hidden gems and soak in the history on my next adventure! ✈️
