PRAGUE

Prague, our final stopping place, is renowned for the beauty of its streets and buildings. We explore the city's vistas, monuments, and museums. Our trips outside the city limits of Prague allow us to see the Czech Republic both past and present.    On one trip we visit the Nazi concentration camp where we see childeren's art that commemorates the suffering of the Facists' victims.   On another trip, we visit a recently restored castle in which a provate art collection is installed.  We tour the Jewish ghetto, a ghetto that was walled as late as the 19th century and that today contains a functioning medieval synagogue and a Holocaust museum.  Oast and present are not only visible but also audible to us as we attend musical preformances.  Czech composers including Dvorak and Smethana intertwine the folk melodies of the countryside into their novel compositions.
