What to do in Prague?
Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is one of Europe’s most enchanting cities—a fairytale landscape of spires, cobbled lanes, and centuries-old bridges, all set along the winding Vltava River. Known as the “City of a Hundred Spires,” Prague has preserved its medieval and baroque soul while evolving into a modern cultural capital filled with energy, creativity, and charm.
The Old Town (Staré Město) is the historic heart of the city, where visitors gather in Old Town Square to marvel at the Astronomical Clock, watch street performers, and admire the twin towers of Týn Church. Just a short walk away lies the Charles Bridge, a Gothic masterpiece lined with statues and alive with musicians and artists.
Across the river, Prague Castle dominates the skyline. The world’s largest ancient castle complex, it houses St. Vitus Cathedral, royal palaces, and quiet courtyards that offer sweeping views of the city below. Nearby, Lesser Town (Malá Strana) adds to the magic with its peaceful gardens, charming alleyways, and hidden baroque churches.
Beyond the historical highlights, Prague is a hub of culture and art. The National Theatre, DOX Centre for Contemporary Art, and numerous jazz clubs and beer gardens reflect the city’s creative pulse. The city’s blend of classic and avant-garde also shines in its cuisine—try local staples like svíčková (beef with creamy sauce), goulash, and world-class Czech beer, or explore modern bistros that fuse global flavors with traditional ingredients.
Prague’s appeal lies in its layers: a walkable city where every street tells a story, every café invites you to linger, and every view—from a hilltop, a bridge, or a pub—feels like a painting. It’s romantic, intellectual, and effortlessly beautiful.
