Hidden cellars and secret gardens, wild valleys and forgotten cemeteries, royal alchemists and firebrand clerics. From prehistoric man and the Přemyslids to the Communist era and the Velvet Revolution. Locations include the Faust House, the Hunger Wall, the English sewers, and the Alchemists' Tower. Also the Prague Bambino, a one-armed photographer, the headless knight, and John Lennon's Wall.
