ARRIVAL & TRANSPORT
Airport
Vclav Havel Airport Prague, tel. (+420) 220 11
33 14, fax (+420) 235 35 09 22, www.prg.aero/en.
Pragues airport is 20 km from the city centre. A taxi to
the town centre now costs around 600 K even if you call a
company to pick you up or talk to one of the representatives
from reputable AAA Radiotaxi or 1.1.1. Radiocab taxi.
Dont pick one up from outside the terminal (click here for
taxi firms). Alternatively, use the EDAZ minibus service
(tel. 220 11 42 96, 05:30 - 21:30) that runs every half hour
between the airport and Nmst Republiky (F-2). Tickets
cost 90K (including one piece of baggage, children under
10 free) and can be bought from the driver or from the booth
in the arrival terminal. For an extra fee, EDAZ can also pick
you up or drop you off at your hotel.
The cheapest way to get into town is on by bus: N119
(2-8 times per hour between 04:18 and 00:10 wi th at
least one wheelchair-friendl y bus per hour) runs between
the airport and the Dejvick metro station (Line A, green)
in about 20 minutes. From Dej vi ck i t is j ust fi ve stops
to Muzeum in the centre of town. Bus N100 whisks
you to Zlin (metro Line B, yell ow) from the airport in
13 minutes. There is a new Airport Express (AE) bus
from Holeovice whi ch runs every hal f an hour, whiz-
zing you across the ci ty in hal f an hour, whether you are
arri ving or departing. Special fares appl y to this bus,
ti ckets can onl y be bought from the dri ver and do not
all ow any transfers or other forms of transport. Fi rst
& last buses from Hol eovi ce 05:15 & 21:45, from the
airport 04:40 & 21:10.
A 32 K transport ticket (plus a 10 K one for big bags) will
get you all the way into town or to the airport on all public
transport except the Airport Express. Tickets can be bought
at the friendly transport information desk in both arrival halls
(open 07:00 - 22:00) or from the coin-operated machine at
the airport bus stop, but not from the driver. You need to
validate the ticket (once for the whole trip) in the machines
on board the bus.
Pragues Terminal North 2 allows for at least 4 million
more passengers a year to travel into Prague with the
abili ty to conti nue expansi on. New bars, restaurants,
shops and services ply their trade in this terminal which
accommodates flights to and from Schengen countries
(Austria, Bel gium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany,
Iceland, Italy, Greece, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway,
Portugal, Greece, Spain & Sweden).
There is a left luggage facilty at the airport which doesnt
close and costs 60 K per item per day.
Pragues public transport system (Dopravn podnik)
is ef fi ci ent, fast and reasonabl y cl ean. Wi th three
metro lines, 26 tram routes and 9 ni ght trams you
won t need the bus routes that avoi d the centre.
Keep in mind that the centre of Prague is easil y ac-
cessibl e on foot.
Tickets, valid for all means of transport, can be pur-
chased from the numerous vendi ng machi nes at al l
metro stati ons, maj or tram stops and news stands.
You al ways need to validate your ticket yoursel f
by stampi ng i t i n the machi nes at metro entrances
and on trams. The most common ti cket is the 32 K
transfer ticket, whi ch i s val i d for 90 mi nutes after
vali dati ng. The 24 K non-transfer ticket is meant
for tram ri des under 30 mi nutes wi th no changes, or
i n the metro for up to 5 stati ons (changes al l owed)
from the departure stati on wi thi n 30 mi nutes. We
suggest you save yoursel f ti me by buyi ng a handful
of these on arri val. I f youre pl anni ng to stay a bi t
and expl ore, get the one- day pass (110 K) or a
three- day pass (310 K). Chi l dren under 6 travel
free; and ti ckets are hal f pri ce up to 15 years ol d.
Large pi eces of l uggage (i ncl udi ng rucksacks) cost
an extra 13 K whi l e dogs ri de the rai l s for 26 K.
Fines for no val i dated ti ckets are 800 K i f pai d on
the spot or pay 1,000 K l ater.
Trams trundle around
town every few mi n-
utes; useful lines are
N22 and 23 whi ch
run from the centre up
to the rear entrance of
the castle, saving you
the uphi l l wal k. The
metro connects the
two main train stations
and Florenc bus station to the centre and runs up to just
after midnight, after which the night trams (the warm
mobile home to many a smelly tramp) take over, zipping
in all directions from the Lazarsk stop (H-5) every half
hour. Tram information is on the red signs at each stop
and is generally correct assuming of course that some
worn out koda hasnt died on the tram lines.
Beware of Pragues ultra-professional pickpockets,
especially on trams N22 and 23 and in busy metro cars;
consider waiting for the next train if it looks squeezed.

Trains
Prague has two main railway stations. Praha Hlavn ndra
(main station, tel. 224 61 52 49) is architecturally fabulous
(in the Jugendstil tradition) al though you wont know it
until you exit its underground nightmare. However massive
reconstruction has been going on, and if youve been here
before youll see the obvious improvements. Ticket windows
move randomnly, as do other services, so watch the signs.
The work is scheduled to be completed in 2010. There is a
tourist office (open 09:00 - 19:00. Sat, Sun 09:00 - 16:00)
in the centre of the lower hall of the two levels. For your best
money exchange deal, use the ATM on the far left of the lower
hall. Train information can currently be found in the lower left
of the hall as well as to the left of the middle passageway to
the platforms. Left luggage (schova) lockers are available.
Getting to town involves one stop on the metro to Muzeum
or a dangerous walk up busy Wilsonova.
The second station, Praha Holeovice (tel. 224 61 58
65), is used by trains on the main Berlin - Prague - Vienna/
Bratislava route. The small hall holds the ticket office (open
09:00 - 17:00, closed Sat, Sun), left luggage lockers, an
internet caf and several exchange and accommodation
offices (open 06:00 - 23:00). It is three stops on the metro
to Muzeum.
There are two classes on international trains, and prices
vary according to length of journey and class; expect to pay
one third more for first class tickets. For multilingual, quick
and friendly service, avoid the queues at the hlavn ndra
counters and buy your ticket at Wasteels or at the CR agency.

Pilsen
Thanks to its favourable location, Plze has flourished since
the Middle Ages. The town, founded in 1295 at a crossroads
of major trade routes from Bohemia to Western Europe,
was blessed with several advantages for that time a
huge central square with the monumental St. Bartholomew
Cathedral and the right to brew beer. Therefore, it is almost
a must for every tourist to visit the Pilsner Urquell brewery,
the tour of which takes about 1.5 hour.
The brewery tour includes unpasteurized beer tasting right
in the cellars. The Pilsner Urquell pale lager gave its name to
all bottom-fermented beers in the world (pils).
Visiting Plze, you will be surprised and enchanted by the
historic town core, Renaissance town hall, sumptuous burgher
houses or the third largest synagogue in the world. You can
even enjoy a walk in beauti ful nature right in the city centre.
This is because the historic town is surrounded by a ring of
parks and gardens. You will be enticed to take a rest on a
bench under an arcade of roses or have a cup of coffee in
one of the many cosy cafs and pubs. And if it rains, you can
visit Plzes historical underground, a system of medieval
underground passageways. Plze also offers an infinite
number of attractions for children, such as the Dinopark with
seventy life-size dinosaur models, the ZOO or Techmania
Science Centre, a unique interactive science museum. The
West Bohemian metropolis is not just about beer. On the
contrary, Plze boasts rich and high-quality cultural li fe,
guaranteeing that you wont be bored for a second. This is
why Plze was designated European Capital of Culture
for 2015.
Accommodation
Pilsen now offers almost 3,000 beds in hotels of different
kind of quality for very good prices.

Liberec
Far to the north, along the Polish border, lays the intriguing
region of Liberec. Here youll find mountains and cities; a
curious mix of nature and culture. Discover the area via a
canoe on the Smd River; visit the wonderful Liberec Zoo
or spend an afternoon at the Babylon water park. Liberec
offers a wealth of fun for the entire family.
A mountainous area; the region is defined by the Luick
and Jizersk mountains to the north and the Krkonoe to
the northeast. In the midst, right outside the city of Liberec
is the towering and rugged Jetd Mountain. This symbol of
the region offers magnificent views of the surrounding valley;
and on a clear day you can see straight to Poland. The unique
tower perched on top was designed in 1973 by architect
Karel Hubek. Besides containing a communications tower;
theres also a restaurant and hotel there. The city of Liberec
is a distinctive and modern one. Architectural styles range
from 18th century classic style brick in the centre to well-
preserved 19th century industrial. The neoclassical town
hall is quite interesting, as is the villa quarter with stately
homes from the turn of the 20th century. One of the most
interesting can be found on Jabloneck street; the Lieberg
Manor-House. For a true flashback to the past stroll down
Vtrn street and admire the Waldstein houses. The oldest
buildings in town, they are the only remaining examples of
the classical merchant houses that used to make up the
downtown area.
The dominant tower of the Church of St. Antonin the Great
on Sokolovsk nmst is another defining landmark of the
city; its altar pictures the patron saints of the Czech lands.
The original Liberec synagogue was a monumental homage
to Neo-Renaissance architecture. It was burned down by the
Nazis in 1938 and has since been built. This new incarnation
is in the shape of half of the Star of David, and its faade is
symbolically representative of the Wailing Wall. You can find
this fascinating structure on Rumjancevova Street.
Now that youve explored the city; its time to visit some of
its sites. The Liberec Zoo is one of the best in the country,
containing wooded areas and a stream running through.
Here you can see eagles, rhinoceros, penguins, giraffes and
many more. The Liberec Zoo is also the only zoo in central
Europe that breeds white tigers. They are also known for
their breeding of rare and endangered species like Somali
donkeys and the macaque ibex.
In the style of an ancient spa, Babylon entertains modern
famili es of all ages. This aqua park not onl y of fers water
sli des, swimming pools, steam baths and a wil d ri ver
but al so some dri er acti vi ti es such as bowl i ng, l aser
shooting and a casino. Theres a hotel and restaurant
onsi te as well.
For more cultural pursuits, check out the Museum of Northern
Bohemia (its building is worth the entrance fee alone) or the
Regional Gallery, filled with European and Czech art. But now
lets get out of the city and explore what other attractions
the region has to offer.
There are three protected landscape areas in the region;
which means hikers and bikers will find plenty of nature
to explore. The area is crisscrossed by well-marked trails,
enabling you to plan and carry out an athletic excursion
all on your own. Water lovers should head towards Mcha
Lake or the region of Holansk for their network of artificial
lakes. Hikers must visit esk raj or Bohemian Paradise.
This geopark is home to a variety of interesting sites like the
Bozkov Caves and their underwater lake; giant potholes; a
petrified forest and lava streams. Towns in the area include
elezn Brod, Jilemnice and Turnov.
From ruined castles to elegant homes; from rock towns to
world class zoos everyone will find something to discover
in and around Liberec.

Southern Bohemia
The region south of Prague is an outdoor lovers paradise.

Picturesque towns and historical castles are available to

own power or not. We introduce you to four towns well-worth
your time.
esk Krumlov
This jewel of Southern Bohemia is almost too picture perfect.
A grandiose castle on a hill; a winding river twisting and
turning its way through the town; narrow streets huddled
together the adjectives could go on and on. Unfortunately,
all this cuteness brings a lot of tourists. One of the most
visited cities in the Czech Republic after Prague; youll be
sharing the tiny streets with many a camera-touting traveller.
Thats not to say you should give it a pass however. Spend
a couple days there; youll discover early mornings and late
afternoons and evenings are a bit more peaceful and allow
you to truly absorb the splendor.

Olomouc
For those looking to escape the crowds of Prague, Olomouc,
a roughly 3 hour train ride from the capital, should capture
your heart. The pretty university town is small enough to be
charming, yet interesting enough for at least a weekend.
Located in Moravia, theres a plethora of architecture and
history.
Olomouc is the fi fth largest city in the Czech Republic with
a population of about 100,000. It is home to the countrys
second ol dest uni versi ty (after Charl es Uni versi ty i n
Prague) which means its culture scene is alive and theres
a variety of dining and entertainment options available. To
get a feel for the city, start you day on the main square,
Horn nmst. There you will find the UNESCO listed Holy
Tri ni ty Col umn. I t is the largest coll ecti on of Baroque
statues within the framework of one sculpture group in
Central Europe. The lower part contains a chapel, which
can be visited by appointment only. The column is made
up of 18 statues, 12 torchbearers, 6 reliefs, a sculptural
group of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and finally
at the top, the Holy Trinity. Also on Horn nmst is an
Astronomical Clock we told you a visi t would be like
Prague! This clock is qui te di fferent from the one that
draws massive crowds to Old Town Square. The clock
dates back to the end of the 15th century, however the
form it takes here is much di fferent than what the original
planners had designed. During World War II, the clock
was so damaged in the fighting that City Hall decided not
to reconstruct it, but instead design something modern.
What youll see now is a 1950s work depicting Communist
era prol etariat, like buil ders, agri cul tural workers and
other laborers. The clock performs once a day, at noon,
for about five minutes.
There are a number of interesting museums in Olomouc
something for nearly everyone. The beautiful Archdiocesan
Museum, located on Vclavsk nmst, is home to a
permanent exhibition of the Olomouc Archdiocese, a picture
gallery featuring paintings dating back to the 16th century,
and the Mozarteum, a great hall commemorating the famous
composers stay in Olomouc. The inside of the Museum of
Modern Art belies its Classist style exterior. The permanent
exhibition is one on arts and crafts form the turn of the
19th and 20th centuries and temporary displays cover a
range of mediums. The Natural Science Museum is housed
in a former convent. The permanent exhibition is one on
endangered plant species while two exhibition halls host
about 20 temporary displays each year. The Olomouc zoo
is located about 10 kilometres outside the city, in a lovely
forested and hilly area. Giraffes, gibbons, ibex, white storks
and a Sumatran tiger are only a few of the more than 300
species you can find there. The aquarium, wolf pavilion and
birds of prey aviary are especially recommended.
The city is rich in religious history. Besides the Archdiocesan
Museum and the Holy Trinity Column, visitors can also marvel
at St. Maurices Church, the biggest Gothic church in the
region, dating from the 15-16th centuries and the oldest
Moravian monastery, the Archbishops Palace located in
the Olomouc suburb of Hradisko. The most signi ficant
sacred building in Olomouc is the Bishops Cathedral of St.
Wenceslas, built in 1109.
If you have a couple extra days, explore the lovely Moravian
countryside outside of Olomouc. The city is a great place to
base yourself while discovering the beautiful towns and tasty
Moravian wine in the eastern part of the county. Litomyl
and Krom are two charming towns that will keep you
busy for an entire day.

There is no other place where you can visit a castle, whose
whole structure sank 16 m into the ground because of coal
mining. This is the case of The Silesian Ostrava Castle,
today reconstructed and opened to public. Have a look at
the green city from the highest City Hall Viewing Tower in
the Czech Republic.
I f you want to feel cosmopoli tan and be a part of an
international environment, visit Ostrava during some of the
big events like the music festival Colours of Ostrava or
the Golden Spike, Usain Bolts favourite athletic event.
Do not miss out on Ostravas culture represented by first-
class performances in theatres, concert halls, music
clubs or museums and galleries. Have a coffee in the
caf dating back to the happy times of the First Republic
and get inspired by the famous actors or writers who used
to sit in the same place you are now. Stodoln Street with
over sixty bars, restaurants, pubs and clubs is the perfect
place to finish your day.

picture of the traditional orient recipes based on freshness
and strength of the original foodstuffs. To one of indisputable
benefits of Obansk plovrna belong large terraces located
right on the river bank. Each terrace has got capacity of 50
seats; both terraces are roofed and as such protected from

liky, tel. (+420) 246 01 14 40, cafe.imperial@seznam.cz,
www.cafeimperial.cz. After a long facelift, the landmark Impe-
rial has reopened with the Art Nouveau tiles and wood carvings
still in situ within the high ceiling-ed rooms. The stale donuts have
sadly not reappeared but the beautiful and historic space is well
worth visiting for breakfast, a sandwich or meal (chef Zdenk
Pohlreich hails from the Radisson SAS Alcron and Marriott), al-
though reviews have been hit and miss. A decent cocktail list will
keep you here late. QOpen 07:00 - 23:00. (130 - 400K). PA

some fresh pastries over coffee, this is the perfect place to
have a great caf experience. QOpen 08:00 - 23:30, Sat,

on the corner of Vclavsk nmst and Jindrisk, the lat-
est outlet of this chain caf inside it is the most grand; two
floors of sleek designer chairs, slowly revolving metal strip
lamps and a whole wall imaginatively decorated with, yes,
broken egg shells. The menu sports everything from salads
to full meals. Service is still somewhat lacking so make sure
you sit well within view of the waiter. DJs spin at weekends.

Globe H-5, Praha 1, Ptrossova 6, MNrodn tda,
tel. (+420) 224 93 42 03, globebookstore@gmail.com,
www.globebookstore.cz. The Globe provides a sophisti-
cated atmosphere to meet other enlightened souls. Darker
walls indicate an edgier characterisation to this bastion of
expat life which had become a tad stuffy in its middle age.
The good food, books (new and second-hand) and internet

the cake cart around. A breakfast menu, plus sandwiches and

Mru, tel. (+420) 605 97 49 07, www.peachpit.cz. The
80s continue in this Beverly Hills 90210 themed bar. Far
more interesting than Jason and the girls is the chameleon
and the Wurlitzer. Seating is sofas, the front bar has piqued
the gay-dar of more than one visitor, its all a tad on the bright
side, but Staropramen is 21K and basic food is available.

Tretters E-2, Praha 1, V Kolkovn 3, MStaromstsk,
tel. (+420) 224 81 11 65, catering@tretters.cz, www.
tretters.cz. The bar certainly seems sure of its leading role
here, swallowing up so much of the space that it leaves little
room for customers. And rightly so. Committed barmen can
rattle up some seriously decent cocktails and they serve
the best Bloody Marys in town. Wear a suit or the staff will
probably sneer at you. QOpen 19:00 - 03:00. PA

pricey but decently made drinks and a few bugs to iron out
service-wise. Theyve browsed through the chic end of the
renovation brochure producing a feel that is definitely style
over substance. QOpen 11:00 - 04:00. PAE

knee-length white pants and heels, ponder the differences

www.crossclub.cz. One of Pragues underground legends
has emerged into legal luminescence as the cool kid on
the block. The labyrinthine den has, despite its slightly out
of the way location, become a firm favourite. Jungle, drum
n base, house and chill out have their own rooms and the
music, whether DJ or live, has to compete with some of the
funkiest, most inventive and ever-changing dcor around.

bands and the smaller international groups ply their trade
here fairly regularly. Every Saturday you can find an un-hip,
unpretentious crowd cavorting at their disarmingly popular

in 1958, Reduta was the first real venue for Czech rock and
roll, playing smuggled Elvis records. Reduta has not changed
much since then; dont come for the brown 1980s interior or
the uncomfortable bench seating; Reduta still brings in qual-
ity performers and even attracts a president or two. Vclav
Havel has brought Bill Clinton here twice now, and yes, he
did play his sax. QOpen 21:00 - 24:00. PE

The essentials of Prague - i f you see nothing else, do not
miss these sights. Obviously in this city that has been a
destination for hundreds of years, there is much to see and
do, and one of the most enjoyable aspects is just wander-
ing around. Dont forget to look up as the gilded spires are
rightfully what Prague is renowned for. But keep an eye of
the ground too - dog owners are not renowned for their
cleaning-up ability.
Charles Bridge (Karlv
most) C- 3, Pr aha 1,
MStaromstsk. Karl v
most joins Star Msto (Old
Town) and the Mal Strana
(Little Quarter) and is one of
the worl ds most beauti ful
bridges. The bridge was built
in 1357, but the figures of saints were added during the
17th century. They symbolise the confidence of the Catholic
Austrians triumph over the Protestant Hussites. The bridge is
thronged all day with tourists, while at night it offers wonder-
ful views of the illuminated castle and Old Town. Go at dawn
to be alone and witness the saints emerging from the mist.

taurants, a super caf, an
American bar, a gallery, shop
and classical music venue. Built between 1905 and 1910 in
the architecturally stunning Art Nouveau style, the Municipal
House has been painstakingly restored to its former glory.
It was here that the Czechoslovakian state was signed into
being on October 28, 1918. It was also here in 1989 that
communist bureaucrats and revolution leaders of the Civic
Forum discussed the velvet transfer of power and the states
transformation to democracy.

reopened in 1883. See Events for the current programme.
Ol d To wn S q u a r e

MStaromstsk. The indis-
putable heart of Prague. This
vast open space is flanked by
a pleasing blend of carefully
restored architectural styles:
Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque
and neo-styles. The square
i s notabl e for i ts constant
hum of activity, day and night,
and a long history as centre
stage for so many of the
citys defining moments, from
the execution of preacher J.
elivsk in 1422, to the attacks on Soviet tanks with Molotov
cocktails in 1968. Towering above the square, half-hidden
behind a row of houses, is the fairy-turreted Tn Church. The
centrepiece of the square is a memorial to Jan Hus. It was
draped in swastikas by the Nazis and in black cloth to mourn
the passing of the Prague Spring.

1, Staromstsk nm.,
MStaromstsk. The 14th
century Town Hall compl ex

tronomi cal cl ock, added i n
the 15th century. Every hour
on the hour Jesus and hi s
disciples lead a pageant that
includes the allegorical figures
of Death, the Turk, the Miser,
the Fool and the Rooster. It
sounds more impressive than
it actually is, but its still worth
a look. The climb or lift up the
tower is rewarded by the stunning views. QOpen 09:00 -

Vy ehr a d H - 7, Pr a -
ha 2, Sobsl avova 1,
MVyehrad. The rocky cliff-
top boasts Pragues second
castle. In the hearts and minds
of many Czechs, Vyehrad
symbolises the birth of the
Czech nation and is shrouded
in legend and myth. This is
apparentl y the spot where
Pri ncess Li bue stood and
predicted the rise of a great
ci ty. Li terall y translated as
high castle, it was probably founded in the middle of the
10th century. In 972 Prince Boleslav II built the royal mint here,
and in 1085 Vratislav II selected it as his residence. Over the
following centuries successive kings remodelled the palace
and fortress, but moved their permanent home across the
river. Within the fortress confines is the national cemetery
(Vyehradsk hbitov), which from the 1870s became the
final resting place of many of the most famous Czech writers
and composers, including Jan Neruda, Bedich Smetana and
Antonn Dvok. QOpen 09:30 - 17:30.
Wenceslas Square (V-
clavsk nmst ) F- 4,
Praha 1, Vclavsk nm.,
MMst ek. Vcl avsk
nmst is actually a bou-
l evard runni ng down from
the National Museum and
the equestri an statue of
Saint Wenceslas to Mstek,
formerly the site of of a city gate and drawbridge. This is
where crowds traditionally come to demonstrate against their
incompetent rulers, and this was where, in 1989, thousands
gathered to shake their keys in celebration of the death of
the Communist Party. Rows of shops, hotels (note the Art
Nouveau glory of Hotel Europa) and nightclubs flank the
pavements, and by night it can get a bit sleasy. Thankfully,
there are plans to rid the square of cars, bury the highway in
front of the museum in a tunnel and have tram N11 make
a come-back.
THE ESSENTIALS
39
PRAGUE CASTLE
The largest collection of wonders in the city, Prague castle
is an amalgamation of architecture from different periods.
From the almost pastoral serenity of St. Georges Basilica,
to the awe-inspiring Gothic power of St. Vitus Cathedral, the
castle has attractions for all - history and architecture plus
marching soldiers and entertainment.
Approach & Entry A-1, Praha 1, Hradany, tel. (+420)
224 37 24 23, www.hrad.cz. There are two information
centres, one in the second courtyard and one in the third.
Here you can find out what time the changing of the guard
takes place, buy tickets and get audio guides.
There are four ways to approach the castle. By far the
best way is to take tram N22 to the Pohoelec stop, where
you start with breathtaking views of Prague from Strahov
Monastery; then walk down through beautiful Hradansk
district along Loretnsk towards the main castle entrance
on Hradansk nmst. You can skip the Hradansk walk
by getting off the tram earlier, at the Prask hrad stop, from
where you enter the second courtyard. Alternatively, walk
up Nerudova and the steep hill from Malostransk nmst.
The worst approach is up the Star zmeck schody steps
near Malostransk metro station; these are best kept for
the way down. Q Buildings & Info: From 1 November - 31
March: open 09:00 - 16:00. Courtyards (admission free) open
06:00 - 23:00. Castle gardens and Jelen pkop are closed.
From 1 April - 31 October: open 09:00 - 18:00. Courtyards
(admission free) open 05:00 - 24:00. Castles gardens and
Jeleni prikop 10:00 - 18:00. Admission to the Old Royal
Palace, St. Georges Basilica, Powder Tower, Picture Gallery
and Golden Lane: 350K (long tour.) Cathedral, Old Royal
Palace, St. Georges Basilica and Golden Lane: 250K (short

St er nber g Pal ace (t er nber sk pal c)
Hradansk nm. 15. Sharing an entrance wi th the
Archbishops Palace is the ternbersk palc from 1698.
Its part of the National Gallery and home to a collection of
European art, including Rubens and Rembrandt. In 1991
thieves stole US$2.6 million worth of Picassos. QOpen
10:00 - 18:00. Closed Mon.
First courtyard. Pause at the castle gates to admire the
soldiers uniforms (designed by the wardrobe designer of the
film Amadeus), and hopefully see the changing of the guard.
Then move into the courtyard flanking the presidential rooms,
which are not open to the public. These are numerous and
include the Spanish Hall, once the venue for meetings of the
Czechoslovak Communist Party. As you walk through the
archway, the steps on your right are where many of the official
greetings are made to visiting heads of state.
Second courtyard. Reconstructed by Empress Maria
Theresa, this courtyard acts as an intersection point for
two of the entrances into the castle. You can exit under the
archway to reach the Stag Moat, Royal Gardens and trams
N22 and 23.
St. Vitus Cathedral (Kat-
edrla svatho Vta).
Moving into the third court-
yard of the castle youll face
one of Europes great Gothic
cathedral s. St. Vi tus i s the
spiritual heart of the nation as
the mausoleum of Bohemian
kings and the citys greatest
landmark. Work on the present
cathedral was started in 1344
but i t wasn t consecrated
until 1929. Check out Muchas
stained glass window and the
door with seven locks leading to the crown jewels. Dont miss
the beautiful mosaic depicting the Last Judgment of Christ
on the exterior of the cathedral. The mosaic is 84 square
metres and was created in 1371. QOpen 09:00 - 16:00.
Old Royal Palace (Star krlovsk palc). One of the
oldest and most impressive parts of the castle, the Old Royal
Palace dates from 1135 and was the seat of Bohemian princes.
From the 13th to the 16th century it was the kings palace. The
magnificent Vladislav Hall was used for banquets, councils,
coronations and even jousting. All presidents have been sworn
in here, and this building was where the 1618 defenestration
took place. The palace contains The Story of Prague Castle
exhibition. Dont forget to have a look at the Rampart Gardens
below. QOpen 09:00 - 16:00. Admission 120/60K.
Gol den Lane (Zl at
ulika). The phrase pictur-
esque street might have been
invented to describe this tiny
cobbled lane with its miniature
workers cottages. After a
l engthy reconstruction, the
Lane has reopened and now
features displays on how past
residents of the street used to live. A few of the souvenir
shops do remain. It was on this street, or so legend has it,
that 16th-century alchemists laboured to discover the Phi-
losophers Stone to make gold from lead. Franz Kafka spent
evenings at his sisters house, N22. QOpen 09:00 - 16:00.
Daliborka Tower. Built in 1496 and used as a prison till
the end of 18th century, the tower stands on your left as
you exit theGolden Lane. It is so named for its first prisoner,
Dalibor of Kozojedy, whose story was told by Smetana in his
1868 opera Dalibor. The underground cell is truly terrifying.
QOpen 09:00 - 16:00.
Palace Gardens B-1, Valdtejnsk 12. A large set of
steeply terraced gardens leading up to the castle. The steep
climb up to the castle is rewarded by fitness, some beautiful
landscaping and stunning views of the city. QOpen 10:00 -
18:00. Admission 80/40K, families 180K.
St. Georges Basilica (Bazilika svatho Ji). The
basilica is the Romanesque church lurking behind a Baroque
facade in the courtyard behind St. Vitus. Now deconsecrated,
it serves as a concert hall. In the chapel on the right of the
presbytery is the tomb of St. Ludmila, the first Czech saint.
QOpen 09:00 - 16:00.

From 1402 to 1412, Jan Hus
preached at the Bethlehem
Chapel , hence i ts si gni fi -
cance for non-Catholics, but
in 1622, the Jesuits took con-
trol of the chapel and Catholic
mass became the ser vi ce
of the day. Then i n 1786
i t was l evel l ed, onl y to be
rebuilt (somewhat strangely)
by the communists, who had
preserved its architectural plans in 1950. Apparently, they
were keen to exploit the chapels symbolism as an historic
emblem of Czech national pride. QOpen 10:00 - 17:30.

Our Lady of Snow (U
Panny Marie Snn)
E- 4, Praha 1, Jungman-
novo nm, MMstek. The
towering Gothic torso hidden
near Vclavsk nmst was
started off in 1347 by Charles
IV as a Carmelite order monastery. Construction was stopped
by the Hussites in 1419, and only the 34m-high choir of the
planned 110m-long church was finished. The Franciscans
renovated the ruins of the church in 1604, adding the mag-
nificent Renaissance altar. The peaceful adjacent monastery
gardens (Frantiknsk zahrada) are an excellent place to
soak up the sun.

basilica began in 1665 on these very grounds. In 1671 the

the large statue of Saint Ignatius, the founder of the Jesuit
order, was placed on top. The church is still active and run
by Jesuit monks.

the gold coated altar; the two
statues below him are of St.
Ignatius Loyola and St. Fran-
cis Xavier. The ceiling fresco

Orthodox church was bui l t
i n honour of Sts. Cyril and
Methodius, the men responsible for the Slavonic alphabet.
However, most people know about this church because of
what happened here at 04:10 on the morning of June 18,
1942 when the Nazis had discovered that the seven Czech
parachutists involved in the assassination of Reichspro-
tektor Heydrich were hiding in the crypt. The west side of
Karlovo nmst was cordoned off by 800 troops from the
SS and the Gestapo. Three of the soldiers died as the SS
stormed the church. The remaining four fought on. After
hours of shooting and a long stand-off which led to the
Germans deciding to literally flush them out, they used their
last bullets on each other. The bullet-scarred exterior wall
holds a plaque in honour of their bravery.
A permanent exhibition to the memory of those who par-
ticipated in the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich in 1942
has here. The small, but very in depth display maps the
Czechoslovak resistance movement against the Nazis and
includes photographs and memorabilia from the time. There
are also films showing on TV screens and backgrounds into
the seven paratroopers who participated in the mission. Q
