The very center of old Prague. This is where the markets were held and still are, where history happened and where you find the Astronomical Clock

This is a clock on the Astronomical Clock Tower with an hourly attraction. Saint come out, figures move, etc. An incredible feat built in 1410. We view it from the outside. To go up the tower is possible but would incur entrance fees. The face of the clock is free to watch from the square.

Jewish history of Prague comes to life in the former ghetto. The sites we see from the outside are the Old-New, Maisl Klaus and Pinkas synagogues. To enter the sites, more time and paid entrance fees would be needed. The famous and unique Old Jewish cemetary is possible after the entrance fees are paid.

We cross the Vltava river while walking over via the Charles Bridge. It is the lifeline of the city and the reason why the city was built here centuries ago.

This is one of the main squares in Prague named after our patron saint, St. Wenceslas. Here is where the 1968 invasion of Prague culminated, where Jan Palach and Jan Zajic took their own lives, where the former Horse Gate stood and where we find the National Museum.
