Hradec Králové, Czech Republic (August 2019)

This was the (distant) view from my hotel (Hotel Alessandria) in Hradec Králové while I stayed there during the 2019 Brutal Assault Festival. Those spires intrigued me, but I didn’t have a car, or extra time, to go explore.

When I did have a car, and a bit of time, in 2021, I checked out the Hradec Králové Old Town. It wasn’t as impressive as the photo below as at some point in history, someone thought it would be a good idea to turn the Old Town square into a parking lot.
