Journey Through the Modern Prague: Architectural Monuments from Romanesque and Gothic to Art Nouveau and Functionalism

Prague is a city that will charm you at first sight with its medieval aesthetics and the modern city’s dynamism. Whether you are visiting for the first time or returning again, there will be places you have not been to or have just passed through! So, let’s check the main attractions you visit during our Prague city tour.

Charles Bridge

This is one of the most famous European bridges which connects the Old Town with the Lesser Town. It is 516 m long, decorated with thirty statues of saints, and offers stunning views of the Vltava River and the city’s ancient architecture. Walking across the bridge is free, but it is best to come early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid crowds (especially if you want to take photos).

Prague Castle

This is the largest castle complex in the world, which is used as the residence of the President of the Czech Republic. It is also home to the famous St. Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, and Golden Lane. Entrance to the castle is free, but visiting some sites (for example, St. Vitus Cathedral) may require a fee and purchasing a ticket, the cost of which starts at 250 CZK.

Old Town Square

Founded in the 12th century, this sight is the historical center of the city, surrounded by majestic buildings such as the Tyn Church and the Old Town Hall with the Orloj astronomical clock. Every hour you can watch a small theatrical performance with moving figures, which is especially attractive for tourists who are here for the first time.

Petrin Tower

This is a miniature version of the Eiffel Tower, located on Petrin Hill, from the top of which you can admire a stunning panoramic view of the entire city. You can climb the tower on foot or by funicular. The entrance ticket costs about 150 CZK.

Dancing House

Finally, you should visit this modern architectural symbol of the city, designed by Frank Gehry. The shape of this building resembles a dancing couple, hence its name. Inside the building, there are offices, galleries, and an observation deck with a cafe, from where you can enjoy the outstanding city views.
