前文曾提到上個世紀跟 Perrins 去布去布拉格，發生了一件令人難忘的事。當年我們有一位十分經典的團友，到布拉格的黃金小徑參觀，走進一間商店買書。可是不知發生什麼事，應該是誤會吧，書店說他偷書，大家爭持不下，店主還說到要報警。最後不知他是否被逼買下那本書才平息，但我們因此而足足等了一小時！
當時已是下午一時多，下一個景點就是查理四世大橋。作為領隊的 Perrins 說，捷克的餐廳很有性格，過了午餐時間就休息，有錢也沒得吃，所以必須趕快走完查理四世大橋，他給我們 15分鐘自由時間！如果有興趣，下午自由時間可以折返細看。
0下！條橋咁長，30個石像，真係跑住行呀！如迷宮般的布拉格廣場，仲點會識路返轉頭0丫？
結果在查理四世大橋上速跑成為當年旅行的遺憾。
黃金小徑 (la Ruella d'Or，英文名為 Golden Lane)，是以前布拉格打造早黃金的地方，#22 號屋是文學作家卡夫卡寫作『城堡』之地。整條街相當精緻可愛，具有童話般的外觀和柔和的色調，小巧的門窗，低矮的屋頂和許多煙囪，很受遊客喜愛。

黃金小徑是中世紀工匠為皇帝鍊金的居所，19世紀沒落變成貧民窟，20世紀才發展成旅遊區。
這間是小巧狹窄的盔甲博物館
好鍾意呢個木咀鳥盔甲呀！
金縷玉衣配無敵風火輪？
看完博物館，繼續走黃金小徑
走出黃金小徑，會見到一個裸男像。據說能摸到他的下體，就會生小孩，所以銅像發亮了。當天一團國內團到訪，一個女的很興奮地去摸，男團友也大叫『摸到了摸到了。』
在進入城堡時，領隊講解說，廣場水池旁有一個非常大的鐵鳥籠，是皇帝用以懲罰紅杏出牆的妃嬪，把她們脫去所有衣服示眾，放在籠裡；而籠下面其實就是一口井，她們捱不住就掉下井裡。
唯一一個被關在籠裡的就是這個裸男，因不服皇帝而被懲罰。這個銅像豎立以表現他誓不底頭。
咁，跟摸他的下體而會生小孩有什麼關係？
小徑走到盡頭出來，可以看到布拉格城全貌
今次重遊，我們的領隊說，給我們45分鐘自由時間，由黃金小徑到集合地點，12:00 pm 必須到達。
愛拍攝『到此一遊』照的某幾個團友，不知是聽錯，還是『你見我未走，我見你未走』，繼續拍攝慢遊，結果，在那段路上，足足花了一個半小時，在 12:45 pm 才跟我們會合。
我們大部份團友無聊地等，在公園拍攝一下。
領隊終於集齊團友後說：『我拜托你們了，我們在餐廳訂的餐，過了時間就沒檯，會給其他客人的，請你們好好注意時間，不要再遲到了。現在我們參觀查理四世大橋，我五分鐘行完，給你們 20分鐘，橋尾集合。』
怎麼 13年前發生過的事，在這天重蹈覆轍？
查理四世始建於1357年，完成於15世紀初。直到1841年，作為跨越伏爾塔瓦河的唯一橋樑，大橋是聯接老城與布拉格城堡及鄰近地區最重要的通道，該橋最初稱為「石橋」（Kamenný most）或「布拉格橋」（Pražský most），直到1870年才命名為「查理大橋」。查理大橋長516米，寬約10米，16個橋拱，兩端有3座橋塔，橋上安放有30座雕塑，其中多數為巴洛克風格，豎立於1700年前後。從1965年開始，所有雕塑已經有系統地用複製品代替，原作移往國家博物館展出。
天色昏暗，原本黑色的石像鏡頭下更加烏卒卒。
聖卡加坦 St. Cajetan- The statue represents the saint, one of the founders of the Order of Theatines, in his order vestment standing on a pedestal with an obelisk, which is covered with clouds and angel’s heads and a picture of the heart on its top. The obelisk is the symbol of Saint Trinity.
很多沙岩石像都不知是何方神聖，總之見到漂亮的就拍攝了。

The statue stands in the place of the similarly composed older statue, the sculptor of which was the Lesser Town sculptor and inn-holder František Preis.
John of Nepomuk再次出現了，可見他在當時多麼受人尊敬。1393年3月20日，根據瓦茨拉夫四世和波希米亞國王的命令，他在查理大橋被投入伏爾塔瓦河。
The statue of John of Nepomuk - The sculpture traditionally envisages the saint as a bearded canon with a starry gloriole, with a martyr’s palm and a cross in his hand.

Pieta- The group represents the Virgin Mary and St. Magdalene bemoaning the dead Christ, above whom stands St. John the EvangeliSt. The empty cross overhangs the group. In the 15th century there used to stand a Column of the Crucifixion, which was destroyed by floodwater in 1496, cousing the column to crash down.

There is a group of an old man and a mother with a child behind the figure of St. Ivo and an allegorical figure of Justice on the other side. St. Ivo was also the patron of lawyers and of the Faculty of Law at the Prague’s Charles University
聖母與聖伯納 St. Bernard - A group of St. Bernard, the founder of the Cistercian Order, kneeling and adoring the Madonna, is situated on an asymmetrical tripartite pedestal. Little angels holding the abbot’s infula and attributes of Christ’s sufferance, which are also the saint’s attributes, are below the Madonna and on the left edge of the statue.
走出查理四世大橋就是聖救世主教堂嘍~這個是克雷門特學院的一部份
查理四世像
本來很有威嚴的銅像，可是旁邊有大大個 WC
午餐時經過的小巷，很可愛的『擺設』
香草湯！一直回味味著當年因遲到餐廳午飯 (約2:30 pm 才抵達)，肚子餓著到達餐廳後喝到超美味的香草湯。想不到今次來布拉格，同樣喝到香草湯！
香橙鴨，雖然平日不吃鴨，但這款地道美食太讚了！
頂呱呱的紅莓醬雪糕配蛋卷，yummy yummy，再讚！
