There were many booths in the market selling little, souvenir "loutky" - Czech for "puppets" (see, there's one word I do know!). Most of the ones here featured simpler puppets, but in some of the permanent stores around the Old Town, you could find everything from simple to fantastically elaborate - and the prices reflected it!
The handmade puppets were naturally the highest quality. I found that with many of the cheaper ones, you more often than not got some creepy looking faces - check out the guy with red suspenders and googly eyes on the right side of the photo - yikes!
The parrot's pretty cute, though. :)
