Czech artist, David Cerney, famous for his politically opinionated art works.✨️Here showing King Wencelas riding an upside down dead horse into battle. Hanging in the Lucerna Palace, Prague.✨️Then 2 men (politicians??) pissing on the Czech Republic!! This one is outside the Kafka Museum across the Charles Bridge.#davidčerney #politicalart #prague #solotrip
At the top of Wenceslas Square stands the National Museum in Prague, an impressive building with breathtaking views from the Cupola.#praguenationalmuseum #solotravel #seetheworldthroughmyeyes
As usual, when it cones to museums, I usually find the building more interesting than the exhibits!! Vienna Natural History Museum was no exception!!#viennanaturalhistorymuseum #vienna #solotrip #seetheworldthroughmyeyes
.....further to my previous post. I walked past Hochstrahlbrunne, a fountain built in 1873 to celebrate the opening of Vienna's high pressure water system. Then once I arrived at Schloss Belvedere, I found that this was not the place to be at Easter. There was one long queue to buy a ticket to stand in one of 3 other long queues to get in!!! Even one of the staff on crowd control said he had never seen it like this - I'll go back after the Easter weekend crowds have left.#vienna #viennaeaster #soloteavel #changeofplans
After visiting the Easter Markets at Schonbrunn Palace , I went for a walk up through the gardens, all the way up to the 'Gloriette' at the top of the hill way off in the distance. The Gloriette was built in 1775 for no other reason than the view - when the Habsburgs were sitting on the balcony of their summer Schloss, they wanted something nice to look at, so they had the Gloriette built along with a few ponds and fountains. The world became a better place!!#schönbrunnpalace #schönbrunnschloss #solotravel #habsburgfamilyresidence #vienna
The crowds were out in force in London on a gloomy Boxing Day so just a quick visit to Trafalgar Square, then back to Piccadilly area, through Princes Arcade, which drew me in with the tailoring/sewing/fashion decorations and up past Fortnums. #trafalgarsquare #princesarcadepiccadilly #fortnums #londonatchristmastime #londoncalling
Chilly morning in Vienna today, but apparently its going to warm up big time tomorrow! First stop Naschmarkt, then strolling past Karlskirche on my way to Schloss Belvedere.......#naschmarkt #karlskirche #solotravel #traveltheworldwithme
Delicious Christmas lunch🎄 @royaloverseaslondon ✨️We started with a few glasses of bubbles, and a variety of finger foods 🥂while making new friends. Then moved on to a celeric and truffle foam amuse bouche (that I forgot to photograph!!). Follwed by smoked salmon, roast turkey and Christmas pudding.I won't need to eat for a week 💖#christmaslunch🎄 #christmastimeinlondon #perfectday❤️ #londonlife #londoneats
Finally a sunny day in Budapest, strolling on Margrit Island, great weather, no complaints, perfect!#margritisland #budapest #soloadventure #seetheworldthroughmyeyes
Memorial to the Jews who were rounded up during WWII, they were lined up on the edge of the Danube, forced to remove their shoes, then they were shot in the back and their bodies fell into the river.......#shoesonthedanube #solotravel #busapest #traveltheworldwithme
Dinner at the Parisi Passage, a historic gem from the 1800s inspired by Parisian arcades, it withstood bombing raids but faced neglect post-war, now revived as a stunning hotel with an incredible restaurant and bar.#solotravel #parisipassage #parisipassagebudapest #párisipassagecaféandbrasserie
St Paul's Cathedral dome as seen from the top of 1 New Change, the shopping centre across the road. I walked down Ludgate Hill, Fleet St and The Strand, coming across the Royal Exchange, Australia House, the dragon marking the boundary of London City. Every building along this street has incredible history.#stpaulscathedral #royalexchange #australiahouse #londondragon #historiclondon
A morning walk through St James's Park on Christmas Day✨️all rugged up and ready for anything 3 degrees throws at me. A beautiful blue sky day in London. Then we eat, drink and be merry....then, maybe, go for another walk.....#stjamesspark #londonatchristmastime #seetheworldthroughmyeyes #traveltheworldwithme #blueskiesandsunshine
The streets of Valletta, Malta. Endless hours of exploring this amazing place. A wonderful place for solo travellers, easy to get around and very safe. Something for everyone, especially for history buffs!!#solotrip #traveltheworldwithme #seetheworldthroughmyeyes #solotravelinmalta
The Design Museum over in South Kensington, the 'Malta' paving stone was front and centre!!#londondesignmuseum #southkensington #seeeverythingdoeverything #londonlife
Had a quick run around Prague after a 4 hour train trip from Vienna. I was last in Prague 9 years ago, all seems familiar except Wenceslas Square....apart from the statue of Good King Wenceslas on his horse, the rest of the square that used to be an elegant collection of historic buildings, hotels, cafes, etc......has now turned into Oxford Street, London...Primark, C&A, Half Price, the list goes on......who thought that was a good idea????#prague #solotravel #traveltheworldwithme #charlesbridgeprague
Cesky Krumlov, a quaint medieval town in the south of the Czech Republic, a simple day trip by train from Prague....then lots and lots of walking on cobble stone paths!!#ceskykrumlov #daytripfromprague #solotrip #seetheworldthroughmyeyes
Went to the stangest market in Vienna at Rathausplatz. Every one of the stalls sold wine, a few sold food, there were people everywhere in national dress, some holding, but no one playing, musical instruments......and Verstappen's F1 car!!???#traveltheworldwithme #eastermarkets #vienna #viennaeaster
Hofburg Palace, the Habsburgs' stunning Vienna residence until 1918. Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth (Sisi) indulged in royal luxury here and spent summers at Schonbrunn Palace. What a life!#hofburgvienna #sisimuseum #soloadventure #vienna
Explored the stunning Belvedere Palace in Vienna, a former imperial residence that's truly breathtaking. The gardens were gorgeous, especially with the ponds and fountains coming to life now that winter's loosening its grip, slightly....!!#belvedere #schlossbelvedere #vienna #solotrip #traveltheworldwithme
Back to Schonbrunn Palace to see the Imperial Apartments. Gold was definitely the order of the day ✨️ but I reckon I could live there quite comfortably with a few more mod cons!! #schönbrunnpalace #imperialapartments #traveltheworldwithme #solotrip
Exploring Prague with lots of walking and lots of tram rides! Walking across Charles Bridge, up to the castle, through Lesser Town, into New Town, and historic Old Town.#prague #praguelife #solotravel #seetheworldthroughmyeyes #seeeverythingdoeverything
More sculptures in the streets, and I found another one of the minitures that are dotted all over the city. It's hard to tell what it is, but perched on the wall near the castle, the little guy in the last photo is looking through his telecope at the city below!!#streetsculptures #budapest #artinthe streets #solotravel
As promised, a beautiful sunny Easter Sunday in Vienna ☀️☀️☀️ After being in Palermo last Easter, where it was underwhelming, Vienna really knows how to take Easter to the extreme!!!#easterinvienna #eastermarkets #soloadventure #vienna
Aimlessly wandering around the streets of Prague - beautiful💖#prague #praguelife #solotrip #praguearchitecture
Budapest Central Market Hall built in the late 1800s, extensively damaged in WWll, left in ruins until the late 1900s when it was returned to it's former glory.....only to now be mainly selling tourist trash.#budapestcentralmarket #budapest #traveltheworldwithme #solotravel
Vienna's Easter markets are in full swing now, with beautifully decorated eggs and plenty of food and drink. Great to amble around in the sun, even though it was a bit chilly!!#solotravel #vienna #eastermarkets #traveltheworldwithme
The Hungarian Parliament Building from across the Danube at night ❄️ It was a freezing cold evening, but a quick trip under the Danube on the Metro to get a few photos is just what needs to he done!#hungarianparliamentbuilding #budapest #soloteavel #traveltheworldwithme
Just blew the days food budget on Sacher Torte and Coffee at the Sacher Hotel because......why not??? Priorities, priorities!!#sachertorte #sacherhotel #solotrip #traveltheworldwithme
