You hardly raise your eyes to admire the beauty of the grand Empire-style building from the times of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. You rather watch your step and try to get on your train or out of the station as quickly as possible in order to escape the noise of the slot machines from the bars, loud pop music from the cheap eateries and the looks of the people who usually hang around railway stations in big cities. But for a couple of days in July, the central hall put on a more friendly face and filled with sounds other than the usual noise of a railway station, the screeching of metal against metal as the trains brake to a stop, announcements on the public address system and people rushing by. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/theatrotoc2.jpg?timestamp=1590264944 https://english.radio.cz/waiting-a-train-among-puppets-8076171 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
