Party on Charles Bridge is cancelled

Prague mayor Pavel Bem and the Prague council are strictly against idea of total Charles Bridge’s closing. Their decision says that company could makes their commercial party only during one day with a duty of a path at one side of the bridge for tourists.

This conditions are for Louis Vutton company unacceptable and therefore they decided to cancel this part of veteran cars race. Prague doesn’t want to loose the race so the company now discusses with Prague council about other places.

The mayor is also afraid that the bridge could be damaged and whole closure of the bridge could be disappointing for tourists. Bem says that is necessary to create directions how and with which conditions is possible to rent monuments in Prague. The bridge was rent for different reasons, but it was only particularly or during a night like in Mission Impossible movie.
