Morning Exercise

PRAGUE old town is about a 45-minute walk from the Don Giovanni hotel.
I used Google Maps on my mobile to get there along what seemed quite a twisty route, but found I was able to retrace my steps easily enough later without using the app.
The 14th-century clock tower at the old town hall
The route may theoretically be a little shorter if one cuts through Olšany cemetery, originally built for plague victims in 1680 but later extended to cover about 125 acres.
I was too early to use the 'shortcut' on my way from the hotel - the cemetery opens at 08:00 - but took it on the way back.
Shorter on the map does not necessarily mean quicker as there is so much to see

Perhaps it is just as well the gates are shut at night
