All visitors to Prague always go to the Old Town Square to admire this ancient clock tower. Prague citizens passing by the clock tower often stop to check their watches.
Every hour on the hour, the windows and doors on the clock will open automatically, the bells will ring, and the 12 icons will appear in the window one by one like a revolving lantern, bowing to people.
