Making Trdelník

Trdelník is a traditional Czech sweet pastry. It is sold in stalls scattered around the touristy sights. Most of the sellers put up a show at their stalls to attract customers.

The strips of dough are first rolled on a steel drum.

The rolled dough strips are then pressed and flattened.

They are then grilled on a fire pit.

Once they are baked, they are striped of the drum and coated with sugar and crushed walnut mix.

Loreta

Loreta, or sometimes referred to as Loreto; is a pilgrimage site in Prague. This Baroque building is very impressive. I didn't go inside because I have seen many churches and cathedrals around Europe, so I passed.
