October 15

The biggest adventure up to date. Nothing to do with Prague, but if you know something about Czechoslovakian industry, probably you've heard of Poldi Kladno. One of the biggest factory complexes in Czech Republic. With the end of communist regime and privatisation it started to dilapidate. If you want to explore really huge (few square kilometers) area of factory halls and railroads, this is the right place. Only 20 minutes from Prague, park wherever you want and do whatever you want. Just be aware of private properties, metal-pickers (Romanys, you know what I mean), still runing plants and local Mafia hiding bodies. See also panoramic pictures.
