Doorways of Prague

---

Many years ago I glanced through a small book entitled, “Doorways of Washington.” Each page contained a photograph and a description of a doorway in Washington, D.C. There is no question in my mind that a book “The Doorways of Prague,” is also a possibility. The buildings and doorways in downtown Prague are simply fascinating to me. Fortunately for Prague and the world there was almost no damage to Prague during World War II and then during the communist era there was not enough money to tear down the beautiful old buildings and replace them with modern glass and steel buildings.

One of my goals during this visit is to take pictures of some of the buildings and doorways that I find interesting. I hope you, the reader, will not become too bored with my pictures, that, in fact, you also find them interesting.

Very interesting
That's a very interesting collection! I did the same thing with Roman doorways, and granted, that became one of my Italian travel conclusion for years. Good luck with the collection, and Bon Voyage!

So much fun to see these since we were fortunate to visit Praque. Thanks again for the dinner and city tour!! It has been a very rainy winter here and we feel like we have surely grown web feet. Leaving soon for So. Ca AND Arizona. Have a granddaughter and great-grandchildren in Yuma so that will be one of our stops. Bev's husband is in the Marines and stationed there. Wimp had a prostrate scare but tests turned out negative so we have to watch the situation but are cleared for travel so away we go soon. Love hearing about your exciting life.

Wow!
Nancy, I am in love with architecture, and doors are one of my favorites. The pictures are wonderful. How about researching them in your "spare" time and doing your book?!
