THE

SECOND

A WORD FROM MAYOR


The City of Prague will, in a word, enchant you. Nowhere
else in the world can you nd a place that weds a millennium of tradition with a modern, dynamic and highly
cultural present. In walking around the streets of Prague
you will have the opportunity to literally touch history,
to follow its course and changes over time. I daresay
nearly all architectural and artistic styles have left their
mark on Prague, together forming a remarkable harmonic whole. At the same time however it is a modern
city that is not a mere open-air museum for tourists, but
also a home to more than a million of its own inhabitants, who call it the Mother of Cities with love and pride
in their hearts. Anyone who sees the unforgettable
panorama of Prague will keep that picture in their mind
forever. Allow me, on behalf of myself and all Pragues
residents, to invite you to Prague, a city with inimitable
charm. Be welcome and make yourself at home.
Tom Hudeek
Mayor of Prague

UGLIEST BUILDING
IN THE WORLD.
YOU WILL

LOVE IT!

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

(tel. 220 11 42 96, 05:30 - 21:30) that runs every half hour between the airport and Nmst Republiky (F-2). Tickets cost
90 K (including one piece of baggage, children under 10

in the arrival terminal. For an extra fee, EDAZ can also pick
you up or drop you o 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 with at least one
wheelchair-friendly bus per hour) runs between the airport
and the Dejvick metro station (Line A, green) in about 20
minutes. From Dejvick it is just ve stops to Muzeum in the
centre of town. Bus N100 whisks you to Zlin (metro Line B,
yellow) from the airport in 13 minutes. There is a new Airport

PUBLIC TRANSPORT
Pragues public transport system (Dopravn podnik) is
ecient, fast and reasonably clean. With three metro
lines, 26 tram routes and 9 night trams you wont need
the bus routes that avoid the centre. Keep in mind that
the centre of Prague is easily accessible on foot.
Tickets, valid for all means of transport, can be purchased from the numerous vending machines at all
metro stations, major tram stops and news stands. You
always need to validate your ticket yourself by stamping it in the machines at metro entrances and on trams.
The most common ticket is the 32K transfer ticket,
which is valid for 90 minutes after validating . The 24K
non-transfer ticket is meant for tram rides under 30
minutes with no changes, or in the metro for up to 5
stations (changes allowed) from the departure station
within 30 minutes. We suggest you save yourself time by
buying a handful of these on arrival. If youre planning to
stay a bit and explore, get the one-day pass (110K)or
a three-day pass (310K) . Children under 6 travel free;
and tickets are half price up to 15 years old. Large pieces
of luggage (including rucksacks) cost an extra 13K while
dogs ride the rails for 26K. Fines for no validated tickets
are 800K if paid on the spot or pay 1,000K later.
Trams trundle around town every few minutes; useful
lines are N22 and 23 which run from the centre up to
the rear entrance of the castle, saving you the uphill
walk. 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.
For more information visit Dopravn podniks excellent website with English and German information on
routes and schedules, at www.dpp.cz, or call tel. 222 62

BLACK LIGHT THEATRE


IMAGE BLACK THEATRE
Black theatre is different; the light is different and the
dark is different. The intense darkness of black theatre
is full of fantasy. Poetic pictures are approaching you
from the mysterious and almost indefinite depth of a
black cabinet. You cannot see the actors, as they are
invisible. Suddenly you can see them rather well and
almost dangerously close. Dance will express the unspoken, disturb emotions and overcome laws of physics.QE-1, Praha 1, Pask 4, MStaromstsk, tel.

Regions | 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 dened 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 oers magnicent 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 ashback 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.

Regions | Southern Bohemia


The dominant tower of the Church of St. Antonin the Great
on Sokolovsk nmst is another dening 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 nd
this fascinating structure on Rumjancevova Street.

The region south of Prague is an outdoor lovers paradise.


Bikers and walkers ock to the area every weekend to
experience the fresh air and beautiful countryside. Picturesque towns and historical castles are available to discover,
whether you choose to explore the region by your own
power or not. We introduce you to four towns well-worth
your time.

ESK KRUMLOV

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, giraes and many more.
In the style of an ancient spa, Babylon entertains modern
families of all ages. This aqua park not only oers water
slides, swimming pools, steam baths and a wild river but
also some drier activities such as bowling, laser shooting
and a casino. Theres a hotel and restaurant onsite as well.

JINDICHV HRADEC
Boasting the third largest castle in the Czech Republic,
Jindichv Hradec is a laidback, quiet place to experience.
The main square of Nmst Mru is a treasure trove of architectural styles while the nearby Vajgar Lake oers a cooling
landscape. Climb the tower of the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary for a birds eye view of the surrounding countryside or stay low and experience the Gothic and
Renaissance wonders of the castle.

For more cultural pursuits, check out the Museum of


Northern Bohemia (its building is worth the entrance
fee alone) or the Regional Gallery, lled with European
and Czech art. But now lets get out of the city and explore
what other attractions the region has to oer. From ruined
castles to elegant homes; from rock towns to world class
zoos everyone will nd something to discover in and
around Liberec.

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.

Religious wars and the Hussites played a big part in the
countrys history back in the 1400s. No where is this more
apparent or preserved than the town of Tbor. The second

maze. The streets were originally designed to thwart invading armies; but now they are an enjoyable way to nd
yourself getting lost. Visit the Hussite Museum and Underground Tunnels for a glimpse back; or wander around Lake

Regions | 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 fth largest city in the Czech Republic


with a population of about 100,000. It is home to the
countrys second oldest university (after Charles University in 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 nd the
UNESCO listed Holy Trinity Column. It is the largest collection 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 nally at the top, the Holy Trinity. Also on Horn
nmst is an Astronomical Clock we told you a visit
would be like Prague! This clock is quite dierent 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 dierent than
what the original planners had designed. During World
War II, the clock was so damaged in the ghting that City
Hall decided not to reconstruct it, but instead design
something modern. What youll see now is a 1950s work
depicting Communist era proletariat, like builders, agricultural workers and other laborers. The clock performs
once a day, at noon, for about ve minutes.
There are a number of interesting museums in Olomouc
something for nearly everyone.

Visit Olomouc, hidden gem of


Europe and the most beautiful
Czech town.

The essentials of Prague - if 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 wandering 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.

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.QE-3, Praha 1, MStaromstsk.

CHARLES BRIDGE (KARLV MOST)


Karlv most joins Star Msto
(Old Town) and the Mal Strana
(Little Quarter) and is one of the
worlds most beautiful bridges.
The bridge was built in 1357, but
the gures of saints were added
during the 17th century. They symbolise the condence of
the Catholic Austrians triumph over the Protestant Hussites. The bridge is thronged all day with tourists, while at
night it oers wonderful views of the illuminated castle and
Old Town. Go at dawn to be alone and witness the saints
emerging from the mist.QC-3, Praha 1, MStaromstsk.

TOWN HALL & ASTRONOMICAL CLOCK


The 14th century Town Hall complex
features a tower with an astronomical clock, added in the 15th century.
Every hour on the hour Jesus and his
disciples lead a pageant that includes
the allegorical gures 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.QE3, Praha 1, Staromstsk nm., MStaromstsk. Open
09:00 - 18:00, Mon 11:00 - 18:00. Admission 60/40K.

MUNICIPAL HOUSE (OBECN DM)


The magnicent Obecn Dm
building holds two restaurants,
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.QF-3, Praha 1, nm. Republiky 5, MNm.
Republiky, tel. (+420) 222 00 21 01, www.obecnidum.cz.

VYEHRAD

NATIONAL THEATRE (NRODN DIVADLO)


This lavish neo-Renaissance
building on the bank of the
Vltava, with its golden crown
of chariot-driving women, is
Pragues National Theatre. The
building was completed in 1881
and was almost immediately destroyed by re. It reopened
in 1883. See Events for the current programme.QC-4,
Nrodn 2, MNrodn tda, tel. (+420) 224 90 14 48.
OLD TOWN SQUARE (STAROMSTSK NMST)
The indisputable heart of Prague.
This vast open space is anked by a
pleasing blend of carefully restored
architectural styles: Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and neo-styles. The
square is notable for its constant hum
of activity, day and night, and a long
history as centre stage for so many
of the citys dening moments, from
facebook.com/PragueInYourPocket

The rocky cli-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 apparently the spot
where Princess Libue stood and predicted the rise of a great city. Literally
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 connes
is the national cemetery (Vyehradsk hbitov), which from
the 1870s became the nal resting place of many of the
most famous Czech writers and composers, including Jan
Neruda, Bedich Smetana and Antonn Dvok.QH-7, Praha 2, Sobslavova 1, MVyehrad. Open 09:30 - 17:30.
WENCESLAS SQUARE (VCLAVSK NMST)
Vclavsk nmst is actually a
boulevard running down from
the National Museum and the
equestrian 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 ank
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.QF-4, Praha 1, Vclavsk nm., MMstek.

The largest collection of wonders in the city, Prague castle


is an amalgamation of architecture from dierent 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
There are two information centres, one in the second
courtyard and one in the third. Here you can nd 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 o 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.QA-1, Praha 1, Hradany, tel. (+420)

ST. VITUS CATHEDRAL


Moving into the third courtyard of the castle youll face one
of Europes great Gothic cathedrals. St. Vitus is 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 it wasnt 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 magnicent 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

GOLDEN LANE (ZLAT ULIKA)
The phrase picturesque street might have been invented
to describe this tiny cobbled lane with its miniature workers cottages. After a lengthy 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

CHURCHES
BETHLEHEM CHAPEL (BETLMSK KAPLE)
From 1402 to 1412, Jan Hus preached at the Bethlehem
Chapel, hence its signicance for non-Catholics, but in
1622, the Jesuits took control of the chapel and Catholic
mass became the service of the day. Then in 1786 it was
levelled, only 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.

BEVNOV MONASTERY
(BENEDICTINE ARCHABBEY)

The former wooden monastery underwent Roman then
Gothic renovation and became an important religious,
cultural and economic institution for the Czech kingdom.
During the Hussite wars it was burned down, but 200 years
later, it was crafted into its present Baroque form. The large
monastery complex contains the Basilica of St. Markety,
the terrace garden, the Vojtka spring and St. Josephs
Chapel. Tram N8, 22 to Bevnovsk klter.QPraha 6,

CHURCH OF OUR LADY VICTORIOUS
This house of worship was built by German Lutherans between 1611-1615. To the right of the entrance is a commemorative site to the 16th century Spanish nun, St.
Therese of Avila, who along with friar John of the Cross,
reformed the Carmelite order into what is known as the
Discalced Carmelites. Further inside is the churchs claim
to fame, a 45cm high wax statuette of Jesus known as the
Infant Jesus of Prague, which is a pilgrimage site of sorts - for
its historical and religious importance, and a couple of unnamed miracles that have been attached to it.QB-3, Praha

LORETA
One of the countrys most famous places of pilgrimage,
this chapel is just a quick walk from the main entrance to
the castle. Built between 1626-1720, this Baroque building
contains, among other icons and objects, a painting of a
bearded lady, ornate friezes, bejewelled icons and a high
quota of chubby-cheeked cherubs. The small museum also
houses a collection of diamond ostensories. Within the
main chapel there is the brickwork supposedly from the
original Loreto in Italy which was own over from Italy by
some well-meaning angels. Blasphemers take note - the
split in the wall was supposedly caused by a thunderbolt

OUR LADY OF SNOW (U PANNY MARIE SNN)


The towering Gothic torso hidden near Vclavsk nmst
was started o 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 110mlong church was nished. The Franciscans renovated the
ruins of the church in 1604, adding the magnicent Renaissance altar. The peaceful adjacent monastery gardens
(Frantiknsk zahrada) are an excellent place to soak up
the sun.QE-4, Praha 1, Jungmannovo nm, MMstek.
ST. IGNATIUS CHURCH (KOSTEL SV. IGNCE)
The construction of what was intended to be a basilica
began in 1665 on these very grounds. In 1671 the church
alongside Karlovo Square was nally completed and 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.QH-5, Praha 2, Jen 2, MKarlovo

nearly another 80 years until the
Jesuits completed it. Peer closely
at the copper statue of St. Nicholas above the gold coated altar;
the two statues below him are of
St. Ignatius Loyola and St. Francis Xavier. The ceiling fresco depicts the apotheosis of St.
Nicholas. Also of interest is the organ, which has 2500 pipes

STS. CYRIL AND METHODIUS CHURCH
This Orthodox church was built in 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 Reichsprotektor Heydrich were hiding in the crypt. The west side
of Karlovo nmst was cordoned o 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

CURIOSITIES
VICTIMS OF COMMUNISM MEMORIAL
Near the funicular railway station and opposite the jezd
tram stop, there is a controversial memorial to the victims
of communism. A group of statues by Olbram Zoubek
emerge into totality as they walk, or are at various stages
of destruction, depending how you look at it. Why are they
controversial? Other artists say they are kitschy, while feminists are angry because all the gures are male and they
(quite rightly) claim women were persecuted under the
communists regime too. The memorial was damaged by
two bomb attacks in late 2003.QA-4, jezd tram stop.
VILLA MLLER
This icon of modern architecture was designed by Moravian-born Adolf Loos for construction magnate Frantiek
Mller in 1930. The building
looks like a solid white block
from the outside, though the interior is constructed with
marble, mahogany and walnut, highly polished and cleanly
designed. The rooms all sit at various levels around an ascending sweeping spiral. Tram N1,18 to Oechovka.QPraha 6, Nad Hradnm vodojemem 14, tel. (+420) 224 31

Prague is as famous for its sex clubs as it is for its beer.


Stag nights take advantage of the price and availability
of both, and on the whole these clubs are well organised and clean. Safe sex is practiced, and bouncers and/
or managers will explain the rules and methods of each
place on arrival. It is cheaper to partake over here, but
that does not mean you wont pay for the privilege of
watching a live sex or lesbian show. Generally, youll
have to pay an entrance fee (around 300K) to sit at the
bar; this fee is waived if you are there to pay for other
services immediately. Many of the central clubs pay
men and women to entice you off the street and into
their nearby establishments, but if youre heading somewhere by taxi, make sure youre taken to the one you
want to go to rather than the one the taxi driver gets
commission from. Check prices of services and drinks,
and enjoy
AAA EXCLUSIVE CLUB
