Prague - City of a Hundred Spires

Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, situated on the Vltava river (German Moldau) in the center of the Bohemian Basin, is a combination of thrilling history and glorious architecture. It is major cultural center of european history.
Much has been written about this beautiful city and its huge amount of culture to absorb.
More than two decades after the 'Velvet Revolution' and the fall of communism, the popularity of Praha as one of Europe's top destinations shows no signs of slowing down in attracting travelers from all around the world. And even though it's no longer the bargain destination it once was, the Czech capital remains as compelling as ever.

Germany - Elbtal from Festung Königstein

Königstein Fortress (German: Festung Königstein), the 'Saxon Bastille', is a hilltop fortress near Dresden, in Saxon Switzerland, Germany, above the town of Königstein on the left bank of the River Elbe. It is one of the largest hilltop fortifications in Europe and sits atop the table hill of the same name.
The 9.5 hectare rock plateau rises 240 meters above the river Elbe and has over 50 buildings, some over 400 years old, that bear witness to the military and civilian life in the fortress. The rampart run of the fortress is 1,800 meters long with walls up to 42 meters high and steep sandstone faces. In the center of the site is a 152.5 meter deep well, which is the deepest in Saxony and second deepest well in Europe.
In World War I the castle was used as a prisoner of war camp (Oflag) for French and Russian officers. In World War II it served again as an Oflag, called Oflag IV-B, for British, French, Polish and other Allied officers. After the Second World War the Red Army used the fortress as a military hospital. And from 1949 to 1955 it was used as a so-called 'Jugendwerkhof' for the re-education of delinquent youths and those who did not fit the image of a socialist society.

Pig plus Barbecue equals Mmmm Good

Suckling pig (or sucking pig) is known in German cuisine as Spanferkel. It is often grilled and served at festive occasions. It's more than a meal. It's an event.
By far the hardest thing in suckling-pig-grilling is to obtain the barbecue and the piglet on a spit. The only task in the five to six hours it lasts to grill the piglet is to monitor it while sitting in a camping chair under an umbrella next to the grill, to control the heat supply, and to drink not too much of cool beer. Pouring a a bit of beer over the pig every now and and then adds additional flavour.
'Suckling pig from the grill' may sound like something primitive, decadent and medieval, but Whole Suckling Pig is a true delicacy and is served at the finest establishments around the world.
