#bucketlistreboot Around 1-min walk from the Municipal House, The Powder Tower or Powder Gate is a Gothic tower in Prague, Czech Republic. It is one of the original city gates. It separates the Old Town from the New Town. Great place to visit at the center of the Prague city. A bit of a climb, but the city scapes are worth it. The nearby square and malls are excellent too. Although, other than views, ther are no exhibitions when I visited, and was pretty empty inside. The most difficult part was to climb up as the spiral staircase is so narrow. The view is worth it though. It was raining on the day we visited so I believe the view will be even better on a sunny day.

The outer walls are densely engraved with medieval emblems. I was amazed to see how they were carved in that era.🫢 When you pass through the entrance of the tower and go inside, there are stone statues with explanations and a spiral staircase. If you go up the stairs, you will see an observation deck where you can see the old and new towns of Prague at a glance! If you have time, I recommend going up to the observation deck and enjoying the view.🤍 📍Powder Tower ▫️Operating hours April-September 10:00-22:00 / October-March 10:00-18:00 #March travel support event #European travel #Overseas travel

The Powder Tower is one of the original thirteen (13) city gates in Old Town, Prague. Its construction began in 1475. The tower was intended to be an attractive entrance into the city, instead of a defensive tower. Today, the tower separates the Old Town from the New Town of Prague. 🇨🇿 #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #passionpassport #celebratewithtrip

The Powder Tower is a 15th-century building that was damaged in the Battle of Prague, but has been restored. It is located on the border between the old and new towns, so its importance is often recognized. The Powder Tower is prettier at night than during the day. It is pretty from below, but if you climb up, you can see an even more beautiful view of Czech Prague. Although you have to climb up many stairs, I think it is worth it. #Czech Republic #Czech Republic Travel #Czech Prague #Prague #Traveling to Prague
