The heart of historic Prague, filled with merchant houses, churches and lively public space. It is ideal for first-time visitors and evening atmosphere.
A broad boulevard of shops, hotels and major buildings. It is a useful base for city walks and an important setting in modern Czech history.
A landscaped hilltop park with orchards, paths and one of Prague’s finest sunset views. It feels local, relaxed and well away from the busiest crowds.
Slow-braised beef in a creamy root-vegetable sauce, usually with bread dumplings. A classic Czech Sunday dish strongly associated with Bohemian home cooking.
