Highlight of my trip was the view from the observation tower on petrin hill it's a bit of a hike up but the stroll down is beautiful and at only 120kc/€5 to climb the 300 steps of the tower it's the best value attraction. Other brilliant spots were the astronomical tower (on the hour), Jewish quarter the changing of the guard (noon) at the castle. My favourite place to eat was J.J. Murphys near the Mala Strana I'd recommend the fajitas also great value for money plus if your not into beer the serve a Czech cider which is sweet and refreshing. Don't overlook the Czech restaurants though you find great value for money and great home cooked food! Prague is perfect if you like to stroll around everything is really within walking distance and it's a fantastic way to see the city. But if your not big into walking then trams and metros run everywhere and are easily accessible! The only annoying part I found is that the vast majority of tourist attractions are very expensive to get inside and on top of the entrance fee the charge you to be able to take photos which I think is a little much things like the Lego museum can be avoided 200kc/€8 plus 50kc/€2 photo licence very much over priced for the short exhibition it is. The castle and Jewish Quarter are also very expensive to get inside and again you need a photo licence although you want to see inside I'm not sure if it's worth the 250kc/€10 plus photo licence or 300kc/€12 plus photo licence I paid respectively. Although I don't regret seeing the inside I just think for that money you should get a little more.

Prague is an old city with a young soul. The architecture is outstanding. Always remember to look up while walking in the streets otherwise you will miss the sight of beautiful buildings. The modern shops are merged very well with the classic buildings. Shopping, food and drinks are cheap compared to other European cities. City is small so you can basically walk it all on foot. We stayed for 5 days, did not take any transportation. Local food was ok but not outstanding. We attended a classic music concert, it was not bad, but had a rather small orchestra (around 10 persons), not a full orchestra as one would expect. The pubs/clubs are cheap, nice and cozy. If you 're into clubbing and don't know where to go, check pubcrawl out, they arrange group clubbing every single night and take u to 4-5 pubs and clubs. Czeck does not use Euros, it uses Coronas. When you exchange money, make sure you exchange from a shop that do not take commission, in one shop, we paid 28 EUR commission to exchange 100 EUR!! (of course we didn't know although it is written but in a small font), while the place right next to it took zero commission. The free Prague tour is highly recommended (you are expected to pay a tip though). The guides are very interesting and speak perfect English. In Christmas, there are nice big Christmas markets in the major squares where they sell souvenirs, street food, and sometimes play live music. I would definitely visit Prague again.

We've been visiting Prague for over 20 years, it's one of the most beautiful places I've visited and plenty to do and see. For us this time, we had a big birthday Chinese lunch at Da Fu Hao Petržílkova 2451/11, 158 00 Praha 13, Czech Republic about 2600 crowns for 8 adults and 2 kids (£80) and very tasty, with the spinning centre table. We visited The Alchemists Room - which is a puzzle "exit game" by Mind Maze where your team of 2-5 people get locked in a room with 60 minutes to escape by solving lots of puzzles. We booked two identical rooms and played boys against girls (of course the boys won) and it cost 1200 crowns per room but everyone had a great time. They give you the choice to play in English or Czech. We tried the Baku Karaoke Bar on Dlouha but we're really shocked to find they charge you 40 crowns per song. We stayed there all night though, and only spent 1000 crowns on 2 bottles of wine, crisps and about 5 songs - £30 for a night out isn't bad really. If your desire is a Tattoo then Tom Milhouse Tattoo is the very best in Prague. But you need to book him in advance as he's Tattooing at conventions all over the world most weekends. https://m.facebook.com/pages/Tattoo-Piercing-Tom-Milhouse/109907885742391

Easily my favourite city in Europe. Old Town/ old town square is absolutely beautiful- make sure to visit the astronomical clock and climb the clock tower to get the best view over the whole city centre. Cross the iconic Charles bridge for a stunning gothic city scape and stop off at the John Lennon Peace Wall on your way over- bring spray paint to make your own colourful contribution. Enjoy the walk up to Prague Castle and revel at the stained glass in the amazing cathedral. After this it's only a short walk up to the monestary- the library is worth seeing and try out some Czech beer brewed there. Also plenty of shopping near Wenceslas Square and the Palladium. Get lost in the Jewish Quarter and stop odd at the cemetery. Definitely do not forget to try the Trdlník, goulash and dumplings, hot chocolate and hot wine!! I stayed in Prague for 4 days and it was just right, any less I would of lost something. A charming city with great nightlife and fun to be had, totally affordable, with beautiful sights to see, I'm a 19 year old female travelling alone and felt completely safe. I 100% recommend Hostel One Home! Only thing to avoid is buying anything in Old Town Square (tourist prices are crazy, expect to pay 10 dollars for a hot drink) and the Red light district at night

Walking/ bus tour for 3 1/2 hrs was worth every penny. Also did the Jewish town tour which was really informative if not a bit of an over load. We also did the 1 hour ghost tour which was a repeat of 99% of the info we had already heard/ seen during the day's tours. However the tour guide was lovely and I can imagen if we hadn't of done so many other tours , this one hour tour would have been more informative . Not that scary really . Got to see nearly everything in our 3 night stay. Do try the street food . The rolled donut things are a must. Be aware that the hot ham brought from some street venders is really expensive ( or maybe we got ripped off ) If you tire of " local" food we had a lovely meal at geovarnis Italian just off the old square. If you would like to do some of the longer tours you may need longer than 3 nights. Be aware smoking is still allowed everywhere including pubs and restaurants which is really off putting. Water really is more expensive than beer. Relatively cheep beer wine and food compared to rest of Europe . We went 8th Jan 16 and just missed the snow ;( .

Prague was the last and most enjoyable of my 8 week trip. It had the best of both worlds, great tourism with seemingly endless possibilities, great shopping with decent prices, and wonderful accommodation that was very central. I didn't have to use public transport once. Even in the cold it was beautfiul with a rich history to share and plenty of street performers to keep you entertained till late evening around 10pm. I felt very safe walking around as the shops stay open late. Some places were a little hard to find as icons on the maps sometimes covered the detail of the direction but everyone spoke English and were very helpful if I got lost. This only happened once.
