Interactive Model of Prague

Interactive Model of Prague Overview

INTRODUCTION:

The Interactive Model of Prague is a fascinating way for both tourists and locals to appreciate and marvel at the layout and the topography of the city of Prague. Built magnificently to scale and dozens of times bigger than any map which you my buy here it is really a plastic piece reproduction of the entire central city extending from its heart like Old Town Square and Prague Castle way out into the distant suburbs of the metropolis. To understand just how enormous a project it is, you will discover how it was fully twenty years in the making - the idea was first discussed in the late 1980s exactly after the fall of Communism here. Not only that but it covers a colossal area of 115,2 m2 and that¨s a whole lot bigger than most Prague peoples' entire apartment space.

WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR.

Anyway, apart from the size and the scale which we have mentioned the great pleasure of the Model of Prague is finding the famous monuments and squares and discovering exactly what they look like 'from the air' so to speak. Wonderful too is that the model isn't just like some giant lego construction it is completely inter-active also. For example four directional cameras emphasise the buildings of note from various angles and light up that which you would like to see in extra detail. For example take Prague Castle, it's contours become coloured and its outline more pronounced when you engage the touch screens connected to it, all of which gives you a fantastic feeling for its importance and its architectural design.

SPECIAL FEATURES:

People can really get a tremendous feel for how the Prague transportation works as the entire metro is lovingly laid out in all its meandering glory, and you can appreciate why and how some routes such as from Muzeum to Main train station are so short - they are very close to each other you will discover - and why others such as from Smichovske train station to Radlicka are so long. The river Vltava and it's many famous bridges also look superb on the Model of Prague and it is delightful to follow its progress from Vysehrad past the Dancing House, to the National Theatre, under Charles Bridge, to the Rudolfinum and beyond. Everyone has their own particularly special building or street or station, square to look out for and get a pleasure out of locating.
