The Man Waiting Beneath the Clock

On arrival

Find the clock. Before checking the time, look directly beneath it.

Look closer

The tiny bronze figure and its relationship to the flow of people gathering here.

Everyone looks up at the clock; almost no one notices the bloke who's been waiting at ground level.

His name is Adam Čekač—'Adam Who Waits'—and he marks one of the city's best-known meeting spots. Try finding him on your own. If you succeed, you've already accepted the tour's first rule: the main character might be only a few inches tall, standing right beside your shoes. Next, you'll encounter the exact opposite: a horse that decided to grow far too large.
