Prague is a beautiful city (in the middle) but the further out you go the more "old Soviet block" it becomes. We were on the hunt for the cheapest litre of beer (23p by the way) when we decided to visit the city's television tower. From a distance it looks like an incogruous eyesore but it is only when you see it close up that the true horror hits you. Crawling up and down the outside are huge, black, naked, faceless babies !!!

Interesting that I love gargoyles, as grotesque as they can be, but think the babies are strange. You had me wondering about them so I googled the artist. Maybe that explains something: http://www.davidcerny.cz/

Take a look at the shark lol EEKS and the proudy! What must they have been thinking to hire this guy.

That man is certifiable......I couldn't imagine any of our local councils having the guts to let an artist like that loose on a major tourist attraction.

No, the council has a wicked sense of architecture all it's own.
