What to do in Prague

Visit Old Town

This is a popular spot in Prague and for good reason! It’s a great spot to take in the city’s gorgeous architecture, enjoy live music, or just kick back at an open-air café. Old Town is home to many historic attractions including the Prague Astronomical Clock, the Church of St. Nicholas, the Church of Our Lady before Týn, the Kinský Palace, among others. During the holiday season, the square is transformed into a Christmas market.

Enjoy the beauty of Petrin Park

This is one of the city’s largest parks — it’s a great place to capture beautiful views of the city and take a break from the hustle and bustle of sightseeing. There are many things to check out in the park including a beautiful rose garden (Rosarium), Nebozízek Garden, a wooden mirror maze (Zrcadlové bludiště), Seminary Garden along with a small café. You will also find something that resembles the Eifel Tower — the Petrín Observation Tower. It’s worth climbing the 299 stairs for a great view of the city. If you need a break from walking you can always take the Petrin funicular from Ujezd street in Mala Strana.

Tour Prague Castle

The imposing fortress is hard to miss as it looms overhead — no matter where you are in the city. A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Prague Castle is the most famous castle in the Czech Republic and one of the largest in the world. Behind the castle is a small street called the Golden Lane. It was once home to Franz Kakfa who wrote many stories, including “The Castle” during his stay. The castle grounds are beautiful and free to check out, all other sites require a ticket. It is also a popular spot for movie filming in Prague. If you plan to visit, I suggest booking a tour, or at least purchase your tickets, in advance.

Catch a concert or just enjoy the ambiance of Wallenstein Garden

The storybook gardens outside of the Wallenstein Palace (home to the Czech Republic Senate) are filled with beautiful fountains, koi ponds, and strolling peacocks. During the summer, it is also a great spot to catch a concert.  One very eye-catching part of the garden is the eerie dripstone wall, which is quite a change from the lush greenery.

Take a day trip to the Terezin Memorial  

While you’re in Prague I think it is important to plan a trip to the Terezin concentration camp. Just 43 miles north of the city is a small sleepy town where over 33,000 people lost their lives. Terezin was used as a transition camp to move prisoners to other extermination camps and as a place of “retirement” for seniors.

Many older, wealthy Jews were tricked into thinking this was a safe haven where they could stay while hiding from the Nazis. The camp also created propaganda films to show the world that no one was being treated unfairly and the living conditions were humane. You can get to Terezin on your own, but I think the best way to visit is with an official guide. There are many tours, we booked one through Viator which also allowed us to visit the museum, Jewish cemetery, and crematorium.

More Things To Do in Prague

The official currency is the Czech Crown (CZK). Some places will accept Euros but if you’re paying in cash it’s a good idea to carry Czech Crowns on you just incase.

How to Get Around Prague

Coming From The Airport

If you’re coming from the Prague airport, the only public transport option is the bus. To get to the city center, take the 119 bus (Terminal 1/Terminal 2 ) which will take you to the Veleslavín train station. From there you can change to metro Line A (green line) to continue your journey.

Another option is to grab a taxi or book your transport in advance. The official taxi partners for the airport are FIX TAXI and Taxi Praha. Taxis and private transport is approximately 975 CZK ($40). You can find them in the Arrival Hall for Terminals 1 and 2. Since we were going to have a really long day of travel we decided to book private transport and it worked out great.

Getting Around The City

While you’re in Prague, it is easy to get around with public transportation, especially with the metro and by foot. There are three metro lines, and they intersect with many attractions, making it easy to get from point A to B. A tram is also an option; buses are used more on the outskirts of town. There are a couple public transportation passes — a 24-hr. pass is 120 CZK ($5) and a 72-hr. pass is 330 CZK ($14). You can purchase tickets at metro stations throughout town.

Prague Tourist Card

If you plan to check out many of the major sights, you might want to consider purchasing a Prague Card. The cards are valid for 2 – 4 days and include free entry to 80+ sights and discounts to others. The basic card doesn’t come with free public transport use, but there is a an upgraded Prague Card for 2, 3 or 5 days that includes it.
