More than 20 years after the Velvet Revolution drew back the curtain on this intoxicating maze of winding cobblestone alleyways, the city of a hundred spires thrills visitors with dramatic Gothic architecture, down-to-earth pubs, ornate cafes, cutting-edge art and the grand Prague Castle, looming high over the city and looking as if straight out of a fairy tale.
Looming high above the Vltavas western bank, this outrageously outsized fortress conjures up childhood fairy tales of a good king watching benevolently over his people.
Prague Top Sights
The Gothic centrepiece of Prague Castle is famous for its beautiful stained- and painted-glass windows, ornate chapels, and spires that seem to pierce the sky.

The spooky (at night, at least) Gothic spires of the Church of Our Lady Before Tn rise above this famous square, known in part for its Astronomical Clock, where every hour, 'Death' rings a bell and inverts his hourglass.

This stunning stone bridge, commissioned by Emperor Charles IV in 1357 and lined with saintly statues, provides an unforgettable passage between Old Town and Mal Strana.

This extensive museum is spread out over six important sites in Pragues former Jewish quarter, including the beautiful Spanish Synagogue.

With 12,000 gravestones and several tens of thousands of additional bodies packed into a space the size of a few suburban gardens, Pragues Old Jewish Cemetery is like no other on earth.

The 318m-high grassy knoll, popular with joggers, dog-walkers, lovers and families, offers magnificent vistas across the city of a hundred spires. Take the funicular up here, just like they did for the 1891 Prague Jubilee.

A baroque place of pilgrimage, the Loreta is noted for its cloister and chapels, a lavish, diamond-studded artwork, and the ancient bells that ring out over the city of Prague from its clock tower. And a bearded lady.

Pictured on postcards that highlight the equestrian statue of Good King Wenceslas, the massive square was once a gathering point for proud Czechs and Velvet Revolution demonstrators.
Prague Top Sights
Well off the tourist trail in the neighbourhood of Holeovice, this larger-than-life functionalist structure houses an impressive collection of avant-garde Czech art and works by European masters like Czanne, Rodin, Klimt and Schiele. They also have Mucha's oversized 'Slav Epic'.
Insider tips to help you find the real Prague
Czechs are a cool, laid-back bunch fond of walking their dogs down to the beer garden. After youve seen the castle and walked across Charles Bridge, join the locals in their favourite parks, residential neighbourhoods and watering holes.
Gardens Beneath Prague Castle
Wallenstein Garden
In the shadows of Prague Castle, the citys Lesser Quarter has a particularly high concentration of lovely parks and gardens. Do as the locals do and seek refuge in the green spaces: bring a blanket, a book and a beer to one of these inviting urban oases.
