Malostranská mostecká věž
Czechia
Walk off Charles Bridge towards Malá Strana and the bridge does something most medieval bridges did not: it ends in two towers rather than one, joined by a large Gothic gate. They do not match, and they are not meant to. The lower one on your left as you face Mostecká Street, the Judith Tower, is older than Charles Bridge itself. The taller one was built only after the bridge was finished. Standing beneath the gate, you are standing between two different centuries of Prague, stitched together over your head.
