Description
Snowy Prague. Boat Wharf Under Bridge by Jenny Rainbow.
Kampa (also Na Kampě) is an island in the Vltava river in central Prague on the side of Malá Strana. Charles Bridge crosses its northern tip and is connected to the island by the street ulice Na Kampě.
Malá Strana separated by a narrow artificial channel to the west called the Devil's Stream (Čertovka), a waterway dug to power water mills (no longer existent). It is supposedly named after a sharp-tongued woman who lived in a local home called the Seven Devils.
The area was named in the 17th century as the campus ("field") by Spanish soldiers who tented here during the Battle of White Mountain.

Nicely composed Jenny. Apparently there is so much to see and more areas to explore in Prague that I have not been to. My friend and I are starting to plan our trip to Prague and also outside of the city for October (I am hoping). And definitely some of your images are the source of my in inspiration. Great series you have.
