Our starting points for a first visit. Outdoor stops are easy to combine; check individual opening times and tickets before entering monuments.
Staré Město
Staroměstské náměstí
Come for the Old Town Hall and astronomical clock, then wander into the lanes around Týn. An early start leaves more space to look up.
Vltava
Karlův most
Cross on foot for views of the Vltava and the bridge towers. Pause at the riverbank too: the bridge is often more beautiful from a little distance.
Hradčany
Pražský hrad
Give the castle district time. Courtyards, cathedral silhouettes and city views reward a slower pace; interiors have separate visiting conditions.
Malá Strana
Malá Strana & Kampa
Take the small streets below the castle, then head to Kampa for a gentler riverside pause. A good counterpoint to the busiest squares.
Letná
Letenské sady
A hillside park for that layered view of Prague’s bridges. Expect an uphill walk; bring water and choose comfortable shoes.
Nové Město
Rašínovo nábřeží
Along the river below the New Town, trade sightseeing for a stroll. The atmosphere changes with weather, season and scheduled events.
