Prague's Old Town Square, a historic marketplace, is surrounded by Gothic and Baroque architecture. Highlights include the Astronomical Clock, Týn Church, and the Jan Hus Memorial. It's a lively hub of activity, with outdoor cafés, street performers, and seasonal markets.
During Communist times, this otherwise normal wall became a location for the unsanctioned expression of dissent. Standard graffiti is common in other parts of Prague, but the Lennon Wall has always been the place to express support for peace, democracy, and unity. The name comes from an image of John Lennon painted by an unknown person, along with some Beatles lyrics, shortly after John Lennon was killed in 1980. The tradition has continued since then, and socially aware messages persistently replace each other on this graffiti-allowed wall
Charles Bridge in Prague, spanning the Vltava River, is a medieval stone bridge adorned with statues of saints. Built in the 14th century, it's a pedestrian-only thoroughfare offering stunning views of Prague Castle and the city's skyline. Walking across at sunrise or sunset is a magical experience.
Prague Castle, a sprawling complex dating back to the 9th century, is a symbol of Czech history and culture. Overlooking the Vltava River, it includes palaces, churches, and gardens. Highlights include St. Vitus Cathedral and the picturesque Golden Lane. It's a must-visit for its architectural beauty and historical significance
