An incredible thing happened in the Czech Republic! Giant butterflies came to Prague yesterday and sat on the walls of a shopping center. We are urgently traveling to the place on our walking tour to document this incident

    The Legion Bridge is the seventh bridge in Prague on Vltava. It stands on the site of the original chain bridge named after Emperor Francis I. It joins Shooter’s Island and the Lesser Quarter. On the initiative of the entrepreneur Vojtěch Lanna, it was built between 1898 and 1901 by the architect and engineer Anthony Balšánek and Jiri Soukup. In 1901, it was opened in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph I, after whom it carried its first name. After World War I, it was given today’s name – the Legion Bridge. During World War II, the occupation was renamed again after Bedřich Smetana. In 1960, the Velvet Revolution was called the First of May Bridge. The bridge was built in the architectural style of neo-Art Nouveau.

    Národní, formerly Národní třída, is one of the important avenues in Prague, Czech Republic. It is placed on the boundary of New Town and Old Town, in the southwest direction from the city’s center. This avenue connects the Legion Bridge bridge with Jungmannovo náměstí. In medieval times, there were fortification walls. On Friday, 17 November 1989, riot police violently suppressed a peaceful student demonstration, which is thought of as the initiation of the Velvet Revolution. Národní třída continued to be an eventful locale during the rest of the revolution.

    1. There was so much controversy about whether to allow those butterflies to be erected but they are kind of sweet on an otherwise humdrum building. I like them much more than some of the David Cerny sculptures on buildings, particularly those in Karlin. Thanks, Vladimir!

    2. Владимир, спасибо, так оперативно Спитфайров отснял👍🏻 Только вчера смотрела, как Черны лично установку контролировал. Он вообще не стареет😮
      Хотя я переживала, что паматкаржи таки запретят, помня его перепалку с "идите в *опу" с дамой из народной галереи в прямом эфире 😅
      Только не поняла, а крылышками они не должны бяк-бяк, у Черны часто все шевелится.

    3. Гигантские насекомо-самолёты Давида Черны и голова Франца Кафки напомнили недавний анекдот: Проснувшись однажды утром после беспокойного сна, Грегор Замза обнаружил, что он у себя в постели превратился в страшное насекомое. "Да и по**й" – подумал Грегор и начал свой день как обычно с листания мемов

    4. I see trees of green

      Red roses too

      I see them bloom

      For me and you

      And I think to myself

      What a wonderful world

      I see skies of blue

      And clouds of white

      The bright blessed day

      The dark sacred night

      And I think to myself

      What a wonderful world

      The colors of the rainbow

      So pretty in the sky

      Are also on the faces

      Of people going by

      I see friends shaking hands

      Saying, "How do you do?"

      They're really saying

      I love you

      I hear babies cry

      I watch them grow

      They'll learn much more

      Than I'll ever know

      And I think to myself

      What a wonderful world

      Yes, I think to myself

      What a wonderful world

    5. Thanks a lot for the video! I was introduced with David's creativity in 2006. It seems that he has been creating his landmarks for ages! In any case it changes the city and makes it more amazing and unique!❤🔥🖐

    6. As an aviation enthusiast, it saddens me vintage Spitfires used in this way; yes there's an interesting aspect to the creativity, and the colors are beautiful. but…😢
      Great walk and video Vladimir 🙂

    7. Hi Vladimir! We love, love the butterflies on Maj department store. Otherwise ordinary building came to life with two colorful butterflies. I am looking forward to see them lit up when I come to Prague in September🦋
