When you cannot get to the old astronomical tower, the tower comes to you

A very good replica of the old astronomical clock tower of Prag/Praha, the capital of the Czech republic. The old clock tower is a symbol of Prag like Angkor Wat is for Cambodia, Lady Liberty for the US and the Old Ben Clock tower is for London.

Here in Hongdae, South-East Seoul, it is part of Praha Castle, a Czech micro brewery and restaurant serving meat heavy Czech food, and international food like Italian pizza, german sausages with mustard and garnish, and US type hamburgers.

Pretty much the same you will find at Starometszke Namesti, the Old Town Square in Praha (original name of the Czech capital).

The beer has its origin in Czech culture too, the lager beer now drunk all over the world was first made in scale in the Czech city Plzen. And Czech Bodovar Brewery is still manufacturing beer, all though the US grandson Budweiser and their MLiaC-style beer dwarf the European original in sales and fame.

I did not eat here. I was after all in Korea, and local korean food is what you eat in this culinary power house of Asia. But they say the food here is very authentic.

Photography of a mural depicting a dolphin and 3 whales (one of which is pink) flying in a blue sky over the Seoul skyline.
The mural is painted on a wall against an embankment of the Seoul metro, on the other side of a road from the photographer.
The trees and vegetation of the embankment grow over parts of the mural. 
Beyond the railway embankment, the sky is blue with some small white clouds. The real blue sky is nearly merging with the  the mural's blue sky, only separated from it by the vines and trees growing over the mural.
