Prague being the fourteenth largest city in Europe is home to many interesting customs and practices dating back to medieval times. One of them is the art of begging which demonstrates humility and desperation at the same time. Unlike beggars around the world, the beggars in Prague do not run after people for money, neither they perform some sort of musical art nor they make use of physical ailments. Prague beggars follow the centuries old art of begging, which is kneeling down for long hours, without any movement. This act of bowing down silently for long hours has made the beggars of Prague the most cultured beggars around the world.

"A Thousand Stones"

In your retentiveness O beloved I might shred away
But the road I took to you, will never turn me grey

Meaning :- Your power to remember me will fade away and I will disappear from your thoughts and memories one day. But the road I took to reach you will never turn me down, and will always remember me because it knows all what I went through to come to you.

Kinderdijk is a village in Netherlands with 19 windmills built around 1740. It is a declared UNESCO world heritage site since 1997. In Dutch Kinderdijk means “children’s d**e”. Each windmill was home to 18-20 people. This early concept of windmills follows back to the Saint Elizabeth flood of 1421. It is said that when the terrible storm had subsided, someone went on to the d**e between these two areas, to see what could be saved. In the distance, he saw a wooden cradle floating on the waters. As it came nearer, some movement was detected. A cat was seen in the cradle trying to keep it in balance by jumping back and forth so that no water could get into it. As the cradle eventually came close enough to the d**e for a bystander to pick up the cradle, he saw that a baby was quietly sleeping inside it, nice and dry. The cat had kept the cradle balanced and afloat. This folktale and legend has been published as "The Cat and the Cradle" in English [Meder 2007; Griffis, 1918].

To this very day people live in these windmills for recreational purposes. Later Dutch went on to make Delta Works which became one of the seventh modern wonders of the world. The very reason this land which is below the sea level still manages to provide for its 18 million habitants.
