Charles Bridge at Dawn
Cross the 14th-century bridge at 6am when the 30 Baroque saints are bathed in mist and the castle glows above. The most romantic 30 minutes in Central Europe.
Prague Castle Complex
The world's largest ancient castle — the Cathedral, Golden Lane, and the panoramic view over Prague's red rooftops. Budget a full morning.

Czech Republic consumes more beer per capita than any country. A half-litre of excellent Czech pilsner costs €1–2 in a local pub. U Fleků has been brewing since 1499.
Old Jewish Quarter (Josefov)
Six synagogues, the Old Jewish Cemetery, and the Pinkas Synagogue — walls inscribed with 80,000 names of Czech Holocaust victims. Haunting and important.
Day Trip to Český Krumlov
A perfectly preserved medieval town 3 hours from Prague — a Baroque castle, bear moat, and river bend that looks unchanged since the 16th century.
Old Town Square & Astronomical Clock
The heart of medieval Prague — Gothic and Baroque facades, the Church of Our Lady before Týn's twin spires, and the 15th-century Astronomical Clock, which performs an animated show of the apostles every hour.
