7. The Charles Bridge. This bridge is very famous as it goes over the river into the other side of Prague, where the Prague Castle is, as well as some other famous things. It used to connect the Old Town (where Old Town Square is), to the Prague Castle side. On the Charles Bridge there are tons of different statues and things to see, but the most famous is St. John of Nepomuk, which is the oldest statue on the bridge. It portrays St. John being thrown into the river before he drowned. It is famous and popular to touch this monument on one of the gold plates to bring good luck to you! You are supposed to make a wish while touching it, and luck will come your way.
