the most dramatic architecture I have ever seen

Cold in the winter. Sooo Many tourists
In a nutshell
Still a great place but tourism is taking its toll
548 Reviews Probably Prague's most famous landmark, its construction started in 1357. It has several statues along its sides. None are original but they are still interesting. There are numerous artists and vendors along the bridge which gives it a kind of festival atmosphere. I walked across it and took a boat...
Old-Town Hall & Astronomical Clock
357 Reviews An astronomical clock is a clock with special mechanisms and dials to display astronomical information, such as the relative positions of the sun, moon, zodiacal constellations, and sometimes major planets. The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the...
366 Reviews This is part of Prague Castle but I actually came back to it in the afternoon because the line in the morning was so long. It is well worth it as it is a pretty awesome sight. It is a 600 year-old Gothic style cathedral and the largest cathedral in the Czech Republic.
425 Reviews I was able to have a walk through the castle grounds after dark with a colleague. Sadly it was to late in the evening to visit any of the attractions, but it was indeed an odd sensation to be walking through the offices of the President of the Czech Republic. It was cold and quite dark, there were...
166 Reviews One of the famous squares in Prague, Wenceslas Square is the imposing square that can hold about 40,000 people. Here they had the famous demonstrations against the communist government. What is now Wenceslas Square used to be a horse market in the Middle Ages. At the top of the Square is the...
294 Reviews The old town square is referred to as Staroměstské náměstí in Czech. During the Christmas period, a huge Christmas tree is set up in the old town square as well as various stalls selling food, drinks and local hand-made souvenirs. A stage is also erected on one side of the square and...
110 Reviews Known as Moldau in Germany, and unknown pretty much every where else in the world, the Vltava is the most important, and longest, river in the Czech Republic. Its impact on Prague has been both positive and negative. Its calm, langourous journey through the city belies the raging torrents that can...
213 Reviews One of the pics shows the Clock Tower of the 16th-century, in the Jewish town hall of Prague. The main clock, with Roman numerals, functions in the conventional manner. The lower one, with Hebrew numerals, added in 1754, works anti-clockwise.
7 Reviews and 583 Opinions innovative musical theme, great location in Mala Strana, except that it is nextdoor to the American...
Pension Unitas & Art Prison Hostel Prague
5 Reviews and 484 Opinions Pension Unitas is built in the building that housed prisoners of the former Czech Secret Police,...
41 Reviews We were in Prague recently and decided that we have to visit this place after reading so much about it from the internet and from its own website. Besides, it was within walking distance from the Charles bridge. When we arrived at the restaurant, we were not allowed to enter any tavern room of our...
37 Reviews They do everything from, obviously bagels, to quiche to salad to sandwiches to all-day breakfasts (tons of choices) to grills/bbq's to steaks, burgers and fish 'n' chips. It is very family friendly. With a children's menu and area. My current favourite take-away is a breakfast of 3 eggs, american...
72 Reviews Avoid this place like the plague. Pickpockets are everywhere and the bouncers are complete scumbags. The manager doesn't give a ***, so why should you? The drinks are overpriced and watered down. The only good thing I can say about this place is that the sooner it is closed down the better. Do...
22 Reviews I really like the place. Very alternative. It’s important to see the program of the events first (look in the web site http://klub.roxy.cz/). There are concerts, art exhibitions, dj´s etc… No Dress Code
39 Reviews Statistically Czechs are one of the top beer drinkers in Europe. There are huge species of beer possible to buy in shops. Actually beer here is not only used for drinking, but also to make soaps, shampoo, as an extra add for food (eg., sausages with sauce of black beer), so on. Interesting things...
21 Reviews In generall czech people are very weak in foreign languages. So if you ask someone for help you may see frowning face. This does not mean any signs of hostility but simply a person does not understand and does not want to communicate. Due to communist era a lot of especially older people do speak...
137 Reviews I am on a home exchange in Prague for 3 months and travel extensively by tram and Metro. This past Monday, May 9 2011, I was boarding the Metro at I. P. Pavlova station. A group of very well-dressed, "businessmen" surrounded me after I had just got into the car, blocking my movement. I suspect there...
71 Reviews If you must have to exchange currency, beware of the scams. We went to Western Union in the Starometske Nam. next to a restaurant. The posted Buy rate for Euro was 26.70 Koruna, next to it was the "Sell Price", then there was this 299.99 Koruna column (didn't quite understand what that was for and...
52 Reviews Within the northern Cihelna Gate (Brick) gate is a discreet sign pointing to a doorway at the side, very easy to miss unless you are looking for it! Inside you are greeted by a small exposition and history of the walled defences of Prague and Vysehrad in particular which costs around 10...
48 Reviews Rest well my friend in this most beautiful and peaceful part of Praha. Your rest is surely well deserved. Your and your parents generations of Slavic people endured many hardships and abuses at the hands of the ruling classes and external enemies. Better times are certainly ahead for you and are...
41 Reviews The Schwarzenberg Palace is a 16th century renaissance structure housing a museum with baroque bohemian art. The exterior is a painted façade with etched sgraffito patterns to simulate cut stone. The building is located on the western portion of castle hill.
61 Reviews This may be stating the obvious, but if you visit the bridge in the middle of the day, you'll be sharing its beauty with lots of other people. The bridge is less crowded & just as beautiful after dark or first thing in the morning.
