Prague |
A city break to Prague is a trip to a unique destination of central Europe. It is not surprising that thousands of tourists visit Prague every year in order to admire its historical center and of course its unique sceneries. Prague is surrounded by some wonderful hills that offer a panoramic view over its bridges and river Vltava that crosses the city, forming some Idyllic islands and meanders. Additionally, many medieval towers that surround Prague adorn its already magnificent architecture. Sightseeing in Prague means wandering through a unique diversity of neighborhoods, historical squares, churches, old fortifications and countless museums. Start you city tour from the Old Town Square, which is Prague’s central square, surrounded by beautiful historical buildings and traditional cafes. However, the landmark of the area is the square’s medieval Astronomical Clock, a legendary site that will certainly capture your imagination. The fantastic Charles Bridge is another popular sight that you should visit. Similarly, do not forget to visit the Prague Castle, a superb complex with many incorporated museums and unique exhibitions. Prague has also some very beautiful churches worthy visiting. The Church of St Nicholas, the Church of The Most Sacred Heart and the Church of Our Lady Before Týn are among the most known ones. Last but not least, do not forget to visit some of the great Prague museums and cultural centers such as the Municipal House and Smetana Hall and the Franz Kafka Museum. Apart from its great history and architecture though, Prague also presents a very modern lifestyle. There is so much to do in Prague, from clubs and dance halls to theatres, music concerts, jazz haunts, casinos, festivals and splendid restaurants. Shopping includes also an abundant variety of options. Explore the famous Wenceslas Square, which is the largest and busiest shopping street in Prague and choose from a unique variety of clothes, souvenirs, music stores and antiques. Especially, Czech porcelains, local handicrafts and Bohemian glasses are top quality and should be definitely included in your buying list. Prague has a very well developed transport system. It consists of a very modern, accessible, clean and relatively cheap network of metro, tram and buses. Particularly, the extensive Prague’s metro will take you just everywhere efficiently and fast. It consists of three lines that cross about 50 stations throughout the city and operates from 5am to midnight. Tram covers also a very large area of the city. It operates at daytime from 4:30 a.m. till midnight and at night from 00:30 a.m. till 4:30 a.m. City buses follow the same 24 hours itineraries and cover mainly the outskirts of Prague. Of course, you can just get everywhere on foot, as most tourist attractions lie in a convenient location within the city center.
