Olomouc

This is supposedly Czech’s ‘best-kept tourist secret’. Two nights here and we’re done with our trip thru this great country. Town itself is a little disappointing, although its UNESCO-listed plague-column is pretty impressive. I think if we hadn’t seen so many other amazing town squares, churches etc we might have thought more of it. Anyways, there you go. One incredible sight was the 3-domed St Michael church. Plain on the outside, but over-the-top gothic (?) figures and decoration inside. The domes on the inside were just stunning. Nice place to finish with. Now it’s off to Poland (Kracow) for 4 days and then a finish in Vienna before flying home. Wah!
