Fight: Miss the zooming, twirling, rocketing, spinning roller coasters and tilt-o-whirls of summer carnivals? Well, it might not be the same as Six Flags, but Matejska Pilgrimage does offer the familiar sights, sounds, and smells of our favorite American theme parks.  Fast food, oriental sweets, and gingerbread hearts in addition to 130 rides, ranging from carousels to bumper cars make for a fun-filled day. This festival, located in Holesovice, began the 27 of February and runs until the 18 of April. To find out more: http://www.matejskapout.cz/
