Kostnice v Sedlci 🇨🇿

The Sedlec Ossuary is a Roman Catholic chapel, located beneath the Cemetery Church of All Saints, part of the former Sedlec Abbey in Sedlec, a suburb of Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic.

The story

A long trip avoiding highways to enjoy as much scenery as possible, from Prague to Bratislava, with a stop at the Sedlec Ossuary. Unfortunately, photography is prohibited, and even with my stealth photography skills, it was impossible to trick the lady watching the security cams. So, just enjoy the scenery outside!

München 🇩🇪

Munich is the capital and most populous city of the Free State of Bavaria. It is the third-largest city in Germany, after Berlin and Hamburg, and thus the largest which does not constitute its own state, as well as the 11th-largest city in the European Union. The city's metropolitan region is home to about six million people.

The story

Going south, I enjoyed a stroll across nature, visited a graveyard, and experienced the Christmas market – the biggest one I’ve ever seen!
