The Powder Tower (Prašná brána) in Prague

Hello! Your hc de smoke as a father are great. I had an idea with that. How about Tomas taking his children on vacation to the Czech Republic? This is a bit silly, you can ignore it if you don't want to do it 😄

notes: it’s alright! however im not entirely familiar with the czech republic and most of this stuff is just a little deeper than surface level research for the sake of time, so lmk if anything is inaccurate and such!

It’s not lost on anyone where Tomas Vrbada’s from. He’s told you plenty about his childhood and the fond memories he’s made there—and you made the fleeting comment that the four of you should go one day… You didn’t know he’d take you seriously, and now you’re walking the twins behind their father to a portal. Of course, you both thank Liu Kang for the free flight. Tomas transforms into your tour guide, and he plays into the role very well.

Tomas takes you and the kids to Prague’s zoo, first and foremost. It’s the perfect starter spot, and one of the most popular attractions there. They would be considerably young at this time, so there’s a seat on Tomas’ shoulders that one of the twins can sit on (and just like at their home home, Tomas makes sure to alternate between them). If one of them can’t see—he hoists them up with a hand.

After that, Tomas makes the trek with you three to the Charles Bridge. He knew that everyone would be complaining about being hungry by time he got there, even if he was taking a shortcut he knew for the longest time—lucky for him, there’s plenty to eat over there. So quickly, he snapped a few photos there of you, you and the kids, you again, and then you and him (he’d have to keep the twins from fighting over the camera all while instructing one of them to hold it while the other presses the button), and then asking a passing stranger to take a photo of the four of you.

There’s many towers in Prague, so Tomas only thinks to take you all to one. If you enjoy books, you don’t let him choose anything other than the Klementinum. Otherwise, Tomas takes you all to Prašná brána. You see through his meticulous planning, because it’s not too long after that you find yourselves in a museum. He makes sure to hold hands with the twins so that they don’t get handsy with the artifacts there.

When the adventure is done (for now) and it’s time to go back home, Tomas does sit and reminisce for a long while. He hates having to tell puppy-eyed kids it’s time to go home. You didn’t get to go to all of the places he wanted to—but it was nice for a while to forget about the life he leads in trade for fun and great bonding time. You promised to remind him to bring everyone back some other time so that you all could get out of the city and into more rural areas, and as fun as that sounds, he jokingly said that for the next trip, everyone should go to where you’re from instead.

As the night falls, you and Tomas spend a lot of time getting your photos printed. He couldn’t stop cheesing the entire time just going through them on the camera; he couldn’t keep his hands and lips off of you, in fact. This is the longest Tomas has ever been happy, and it reinforces why he’s more than in love with you—Tomas is infatuated with you.

Prašná Brána - Prague, Czech Republic

Hoy 20 de marzo hace 547 años que se inició la construcción de la Prašná brána, Torre de la Pólvora en español y cuyo nombre original era la Puerta Nueva. Se encuentra al lado de la Casa Municipal de Praga. Torre que pertenecía al sistema de fortificaciones de la Ciudad Vieja, y que debía sustituir a la antigua Puerta de Odrana “Montaña”, y al mismo tiempo proteger la Corte del Rey. La nueva torre fue en realidad un regalo de los ciudadanos del casco antiguo para el joven rey Vladislav. Según los registros el propio Vladislav colocó la primera piedra del edificio, concretamente en la esquina del lado este. La obra inicialmente la supervisó el Maestro Václav de Žlutice. Sin embargo, después de unos tres años, lo sustituyó el talentoso autodidacta Matěj Rejsek. Se puede argumentar la importancia de la rica decoración de todo el edificio, ya que en 1779 fue destrozada. Sin embargo, se han conservado varias esculturas notables, como el autorretrato de Rejsk de alrededor de 1477. Sin embargo, cuando el rey se mudó de la Ciudad Vieja al Castillo de Praga en 1485, el trabajo posterior en la torre como parte de las fortificaciones perdió su significado. La construcción llegó hasta la cornisa superior y ahí se quedó sin terminar. Aspecto actual de la Torre de la Pólvora La Torre de la Pólvora adquirió su forma actual después de una modificación pseudogótica en los años 1878-1886, que fue dirigida por el arquitecto Josef Mocker. La apariencia de la Torre del Puente de la Ciudad Vieja le sirvió de modelo. Mocker tenía un nuevo techo de cincel hecho con torretas de esquina y una galería. También hizo quitar el reloj de principios del siglo XIX. La fachada está decorada con estatuas de monarcas checos y emblemas de los países que gobernaron. En la fachada este a la izquierda está Carlos IV. En el lado este está Přemysl Otakar II, en el oeste está Jorge de Poděbrady y Vladislav II. Hoy, la puerta pertenece a la ciudad capital de Praga y está abierta al público. Entre otras cosas, la exposición The King's Court - Life in Medieval Prague se encuentra en su interior desde 2007. En enero de 2013, la torre pasó a manos del Museo de la Ciudad Capital de Praga. Hace 547 años inició la construcción de la Prašná brána y sigue con su característico color negro.

Na bitte da ist er ja.... der Pulverturm (oder Prašná brána auf Tschechisch) war eigentlich ein Teil des, im 15 Jahrhunderts errichteten, gut befestigten Königshofes. Seinen heutigen Namen erhielt er im 17. Jhd., weil dort Schwarzpulver gelagert wurde. Heute ist er eine bedeutende Sehenswürdigkeit  und auch das Eingangstor in die Altstadt von Prag.

Standing on a corner, watching centuries pass The Powder Tower Gate is the monumental gothic gate between the new New Town, Novo Mesto, and the Old Town, Stare Mesto, of Praha. Prašná brána was completed as a main entrance gate in 1475 CE, and served as the starting point of the Royal road up to the royal castle at Hradcany Hill. All coronations of the czech/bohemian kings started with a parade through this gate. The earlier gates was part of the original fortifications of the the city a couple of hundred years earlier. The new gate become the main gate between the oldest town and the new town with its fortifications with the reign of Charles IV. Starting in the 1700s, the tower served as storage for gunpowder, and got its current name. It acts as a symbol of Praha like the Eiffel Tower of Paris or the Independence Monument of Phnom Penh. Entering from Novo Mesto this fine fall day, suddenly the scene become a mix of reneissance, baroque, modernism, 1920s and 1970s Europe. So I added a touch of classic Agfacolor to the final photo for that historic feeling. https://www.prague.eu/en/object/places/102/powder-gate-tower-prasna-brana #praha #prag #prague #czech #republic #tsjekkia #centerof #Europe #prettiestcity #powder #tower #gate #classic #car #locals #tourists #streetphoto #streetphotography #2017CE #city #citylife #huaweinorge #testing #huawei #honor9 #huawei_norge (at Powder Tower) https://www.instagram.com/p/BYI8JlIgYq5/?utm_medium=tumblr
