Prague was once under Communist rule during Stalin’s reign. The location of today’s Prague Metronome used to hold a humungous statue of Stalin overlooking the city (which sounds slightly terrifying). Less than 10 years after the it was installed, the statue was removed and destroyed in 1962 by protesters. The site is still a well-visited one yet to get there, we first had to climb another hill!
The Prague Metronome is not an incredibly interesting attraction. The red hand just ticks back and forth, but the locals swear by the amazing views from Letna Park.
Annalisa and I decided to stop here to eat our sandwiches for lunch. Overall, I would not recommend visiting this park since there are plenty of nicer and cleaner parks around the city. This one is popular among young skateboarders, but it also means that it is graffiti-infested and not that clean.
