From my original post of this, 9 years ago, and very fortunate for me to have a collection on Flickr even as I was building up a large collection on #DoEvilGoogle #GooglePlus.....

Tesla Tribute - Prague

As a long-time fan of Tesla, and knowing his origins, I thought this was very cool. (Historic + pretty) I took the 'short cut' through this indoor mall/passageway off of Wenceslas Sq. to Národní many times. Exited by a tiny church. There's a small camera store in there too, along with Tesla and Chinese food. "Eclectic"! :-)

Reposted in 2016/updated today 'here' on Tesla's birthday - and still never added to my own large collection of images of Prague @

Happy 167th Birthday, Nikola Tesla ! (Born July 10, 1856)

This stained glass looms over the passage-way/arcade Pasáž Světozor in Prague, near Wenceslas Square.

This huge testament is not only to the man, but also his technology - TEchnika SLAboproudá" - which means "Low voltage technology". The state run monopoly, first "Elektra" in 1921, and then TESLA in 1946, was a huge electronics conglomerate, continuing through the years of communist control over "Czechoslovakia", until 1989. Now Tesla's legacy and vision are honored throughout the world.

Today he was celebrated at his New Jersey (USA) laboratory, which is becoming a museum. He is beloved throughout Prague, Serbia & central Europe, where he spent his early years. In 1884 he moved to the U.S. which was experiencing an explosion of inventions which changed our world forever: electricity, light, phonograph, movies, telephone, & automobiles with rubber wheels, to name a few.

The Tesla Science Museum is located in Wardenclyffe, N.J., not far from his competitor/nemesis Thomas Edison:

I had mentioned this arcade in Prague, in another discussion about Nikola Tesla, whose birthday (1856) was today, 10 June.

In another arcade/mall between buildings on Wenceslas Square, Prague, there is a huge stained-glass tribute to Tesla.

I finally managed to find my favorite image of that; it too had been swallowed up by the black hole of #GooglePlus.
I'll post it separately with its description 'fresh' as a new birthday tribute, rather than screenshot. In a moment. Tagged #Tesla

Meanwhile, this one here is a reminder of how riding a dead horse may get attention but probably isn't a good idea in general.
