# The tower's a throwback to the old Communist days.
It dwarfs everything else in the city, and a while ago it was decided that it needed something to make it less oppressive, so they got an artist to attach giant steel babies to it.
It's a strangely beautiful thing. If you ever go to Prague you really can't miss it, even if you try.

# I love a nice bit of Communist-era architecture.
Mind you, that's probably cos I didn't have to live under the regime, so the architecture doesn't have quite such an association for me.

# Unfortunately,
it was a dull and drizzly day when I went, so probably didn't see the view at its best...it was still an impressive panorama of the city and surrounding area, though.
