Europe / Czechia
Places to go. A little room to wander.
THE SHORTLIST
Staré Město
Old Town Square is a useful place to get your bearings, with civic and religious buildings framing a busy public space. Look at the square as a whole before concentrating on individual details. Then choose a nearby lane for a quieter look at how the old center fits together.

Staré Město / Malá Strana
Charles Bridge is worth crossing slowly enough to notice the statues, towers and changing river views. Step aside when stopping for a photograph so other people can pass. Give yourself a flexible approach through the surrounding streets rather than expecting the bridge to be a quick connection.

Hradčany
Prague Castle is a large complex with courtyards and buildings from different periods, so decide which parts matter most to you. It deserves more time than a single palace façade. Check current visitor routes and admission details, then plan a pause before adding more uphill walking.

Malá Strana / Hradčany
The gardens on Petřín offer a greener view of Prague, with paths, benches and opportunities to look back across the city. Choose a modest section if the castle has already used most of your energy. Confirm the day's access arrangements rather than assuming every route or transport option is operating.

A note before you go. Expect cobbles and uphill sections. Check official transport and garden access before relying on a particular approach to Petřín, and keep the second day's walking distance adjustable.
