Czech Republic hidden gems | Enchanted Wanderings

A view down a charming, narrow cobblestone alleyway in Olomouc, Czechia, reminiscent of old European cities. The alley is lined with old buildings featuring pale yellow and cream-colored facades, with arched passages connecting them overhead, creating a sense of depth and enclosure. Windows with dark frames and some with grates are visible on the buildings. In the distance, the alley narrows, and a colorful building with a prominent tower and a clock face can be seen, adding a focal point. The sky is barely visible at the top, suggesting an overcast day or the street being deeply set. A purple banner overlays the top left corner with white text that reads "Olomouc - The Second Prague Czechia".
