Wallenstein Palace Gardens
This vast palace and garden is a charming Baroque was built by one of the most powerful and wealthiest Czech noblemen, Albrecht von Wallenstein. Today it is the seat of the Czech Senate. The beautiful Wallenstein Gardens are open to the public during the summer, free of charge.
We will stroll across Prague’s oldest bridge, the iconic Charles Bridge, adorned with 30 picturesque statues and featuring the most beautiful Gothic bridge tower in Europe. Standing since 1357, the bridge’s legendary construction is said to have been helped by eggs mixed into the mortar. Touch the magical five-star sign to make a wish, and feel the power of the saints. This is the heart of Prague, where you can immerse yourself in the city’s golden past—a truly romantic experience! You might even recognize the setting from the first Mission Impossible movie. Nearby, explore the charming Prague Venice area, with its Devil’s Stream side channel, and the famous John Lennon Wall, a symbol of anti-communist protest. At the bridge’s end, you’ll see the magnificent Klementinum, a former Jesuit College now serving as the National Library.
Staromestske namesti
Strolling through the oldest streets, we will reach the charming Old Town Square, the 3D textbook of many architectural styles. There are many important sights: the baroque, gateau-like St. Nicholas church, the Kinský Palace - the city’s finest rococo facade, the gothic House at the Stone Bell, the spiky-topped Church of Týn and much more. The Square is dominated by the Jan Hus Statue and the Old Town Hall (damaged by Nazis in W.W. II). Everybody just "wow" at the truly amazing Astronomical Clock with the hourly show - 12 apostles appearing in two windows and the skeleton ringing the bell. Notice the bloody execution place marked by the crosses. We can also reach the tower of the Town Hall (by lift :-) and enjoy a panoramic view.
Church of Our Lady before Tyn
The Church of Our Lady before Týn is among the most beautiful Gothic buildings in Prague. Its distinctive twin spires make the Týn Church an unmistakable Old Town landmark. The illustrious Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe is buried in this Church.
Architecture of 20 century
Obecni Dum
The most beautiful Art Noveau building of Prague. The Municipal House facade is eye-catching monumental architectural composition. Monumental allegorical figures, displayed all over the facade of the building, which were created by some of the greatest local artists. Anthropomorphical sculptures are accompanied by decor with Art Nouveau floral ornaments as well as other classical architectural elements. It is a civic building that houses Smetana Hall, a celebrated concert venue, where The Prague Spring festival is held.
The Old Town Hall Tower is one of the most striking buildings in Prague. Inside is a staircase and an elevator, which visitors can climb or ride to the top to take in beautiful views over the Old Town. The amazing mediaeval clock is located at the side of the Old Town Hall Tower. When the clock strikes the hour, the procession of the Twelve Apostles statues appears in front of visitors.
