 View from the river by Rachael71 You can take a boat trip from Charles Bridge, just look out for the ticket sellers - they're the ones in sailor suits! We paid around 5GBP for a 45 minute round-trip, which included a beer and a slice of cake. Our guide spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable, pointing out all the sights and explaining their history. He was also happy to answer all our questions and chat about his life in Prague. The picture shows the old water pumping station, there is a nice bar there with very reasonably priced drinks (by UK standards anyway) and a terrific view. Leave a Comment

 Vltava River by LoriPori Now we will cross over the VLTAVA RIVER or Moldau via the Charles Bridge, famous for its combination of Gothic construction and Barocque Statues. "The River Vltava gives the city life both spiritually and practically. Since 920 a 'free highway on water' it is honoured and celebrated as 'the girdle of Prague, the beautiful'. Even today the view of the town from the deck of a boat has its magic." -- V. Dudak A pleasant relaxing way to see Prague from a different prospective is on a River Boat Tour offered by many different Tour Groups. Leave a Comment

by kris-t The Vltava is the longest river in the Czech Republic, running north from its source in Šumava through Český Krumlov, České Budějovice, and Prague (Praha), merging with the Elbe (Labe) at Mělník. It is 430 kilometers long and drains about 28,090 square kilometers; at their confluence the Vltava actually has more water than the Elbe, but joins the Elbe at a right angle to its flow so that it appears a mere tributary.

 Performer band on Charles Bridge - Prague by codrutz The largest (widest) bridge in Prague and the most scenic is of course Karluv Most (Charles Bridge). People - tourist or locals - enjoy walking up and down on it, and watch the performers like this band do their thing or sell nice souvenirs (paintings in oil, mugs and stuff). Leave a Comment

 Cruising on Vltava River in Prague by codrutz This is a must see but also a must do activity when visiting Prague. Vltava is a big river and cruising on it when the weather is nice can be a genuine pleasable experience. As I said, pick a nice day, be up early in the morning and start the Prague tour by boat.

 Vltava by catkin No trip to Prague would be complete without a cruise on the Vltava. There are many points along the river where you can pick up the pleasure boats and the trips vary in length. The composer Smetana wrote the musical idyll Vltava, which tells the story of the rivers journey from its beginnings as small rivulets in the mountains until it flows majestically through Prague and out into the rural countryside Leave a Comment

 Vltava again by shivan Another viev of this beautiful river. Prague is crossed by the course of the Vltava, that is longest Czech river, and flows into the Elbe together with which it leaves the Czech Republic, runs through Germany to empty into the North Sea. The length of the course of the Vltava River running through Prague is approximately 31 km. Leave a Comment

 The Vltava again by shivan The Vltava again. This picture gives me a good chance to tell that in the past years, let's say during the seventies in the last century, Vltava was used to freeze every winter, from one bank to the other. And it freezed so deep that people from Prague used to ice-skate on it. When my wife told me it, I thought to how much colder could Prague have been at that time. She tells that a temperature of about -20 C even during the mornings was not unusual... Leave a Comment

 Another bridge by shivan This bridge, which name is Most Legii, the Bridge of Legions (advice given by my frind mrclay2000, THANKS!) leads to that hill in the distance, which name Is Petrin Hill (THANKS MIKE AGAIN!). There is also a cable-railway leading on top of it from where a wonderful view of the the town is enjoable. The whole hill, Vltava's side, is actually a park, where young lovers, my wife says, are used to go to stay alone. Leave a Comment

 The Vltava river by shivan This picture is taken from above the Charles bridge. The river is very large and navigation is allowed only through the barriers you can see in the middle of it. No signs of the floodings that last year put Prague on its knees remained thanks of the great work of the citizens to save their hometown.
