The Wonderful Building is a towering structure located in the urban area of Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. Built in 1985, it stands 216 meters tall.


One of the main reasons for its construction was to improve the radio signal coverage in the area, as the signal source in Czechoslovakia was previously weak, particularly in Prague where coverage was inadequate. As a result, many families were unable to receive various messages.


The building boasts several unique features, including 10 sculptures of giant babies climbing on the tower. From a distance, it appears as if a rocket is ready to take off at any time.


Additionally, there is a six-star hotel located within the tower. The building's asymmetrical design includes three columns that reach straight into the sky, and multiple sightseeing spaces in different positions, reminiscent of a space capsule.


The designer of this striking building is Czech contemporary sculptor David Cerny. Cerny is a controversial figure known for his unique and radical sculptures, many of which contain profound metaphors.


When visiting Prague, there are plenty of other attractions to explore beyond the Wonderful Building. In the Old Town, visitors can check out the Old Town Square, Old Town Hall, Astronomical Clock, Small Square, Havel's Market, Charles Bridge, Staffordsky Theater, Powder Tower, Civic Hall, and Hiperney Theater.


In the New Town, there is the Mucha Museum, Wenceslas Square, Hotel Europe, National Museum, Lovre Cafe, Vltava River, National Theater, and Dancing House.


The Lesser Town offers the Community Square and John Lennon Wall, while the Castle District offers the Old Royal Palace, Golden Lane, Wallenstein Gardens, and Royal Gardens. The High Castle District offers the Ruins of the City Wall and St. Martin's Rotunda.


When traveling to Prague, there are a few precautions to keep in mind. When using public transportation such as buses or subways, it is important to remember to print a ticket (validation).


Failing to do so can result in a fine of 800 crowns. Additionally, it is not recommended for girls to wear high heels as walking in them on the roads in Prague's scenic spots can be dangerous. When dining in a restaurant, a 10% service fee is often charged, but it is not mandatory to give.


Most hostels and hotels provide free maps, so there is no need to purchase them in advance. Lastly, while most hotels, shops, and restaurants accept credit cards, it is best to have some Czech koruna on hand, particularly at Czech airports.


The best time to visit Prague is during the May to September period, when the climate is mild and the scenery is at its best. Prague has a temperate climate with cold, dry winters and warm, humid summers. The temperature is most comfortable during this time, making it an ideal season for tourism.
