Loreta, Prague

Loreta (Loreto), Prague, Czech Republic

This beautiful baroque building is the Loreta monastery, located in the Castle District, Prague, Czech Republic. The square in front of the building is a good place to relax on a sunny afternoon, after a long walk through beautiful Prague. That's exactly what I did, and while I was resting by legs I let my camera and my eyes to do all the work (the result is this photograph and several others).
