Walking down the streets in the blue hour after sunset, scarf wrapped tightly around my neck I make my way to the St. Salvator church at the Charles Bridge entrance to Old Town Praha.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

Being built between 1578-1654, it’s classic baroque architecture is truly a marvel. Inside it’s high domed ceiling has hand painted fresco’s and sand stone sculptures of saints.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

I sit on a heated pew, and wait for the concert to begin. An hour of classical music being played live. The acoustics add to the magic emitting from the stringed instruments.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Closing my eyes, I become transported to a new era, a time of peace and tranquility as the notes of Mozart and the like take one away on a mystical journey…..<\/p>\n

if only for a little while.<\/p><\/div>\n
