Jewish Quarter in Prague carries a turbulent history and there are so many stories attached to this place. Fortunately, the area was left alone during WWII. Today, there are so many artefacts to be found in the museum and synagogues that are worth checking out. The area is quite beautiful and perfect for strolling around with a cup of coffee in hand.
Old Jewish cemetery. What you see here is clustered and cluttered tombstones. There is a reason for it…..Jewish people believe that a dead person should never be forgotten…so when there were no spaces….bodies were buried above each other…however their tombstones remained in place…thus ensuring they were not forgotten
Ceremonial Hall….where they prepare for funerals and burials
