Mr Monkey in Prague, 8th June


"I'll go up that Prašná brána, but only when it's open"

Next to the Municipal Building, Mr Monkey found the Prašná brána (Powder Tower), a gateway built in the late 15th century but now named after its 18th century use as a gunpowder store. You can go up to the top of the tower during the day, but Mr Monkey had arrived too late for that. He could have swarmed up the outside with his nimble monkey paws, of course, but that would have left Mr Rik behind, so he led his humans went through the gate instead.
