Prague travel tips: Visit the medieval fairytale city 🇨🇿
Prague, known for its well-preserved medieval buildings, winding cobblestone streets and beautiful castle, is known as the "City of a Hundred Spires". Every corner of this city is full of history and romance. To have a smooth journey in this ancient city, the following tips can help you better experience this charming place.
🏰 Book your attraction tickets in advance to avoid crowds
Prague has many world-famous attractions, such as Prague Castle, Charles Bridge and Old Town Square, which tend to attract a large number of tourists. If you plan to visit popular attractions such as Prague Castle, it is recommended to purchase tickets on the official website in advance to avoid the trouble of queuing on site. The Charles Bridge is particularly charming in the evening. Avoid the daytime crowds and enjoy the quiet river view at sunset.
🚶 Explore the Old Town on foot and feel the city atmosphere
Prague's Old Town is the most walkable place, full of historical atmosphere and exquisite architectural details. Walking through the narrow alleys and squares, you will find many hidden cafes, small shops and street performers. Don't miss the Astronomical Clock and St. Vitus Cathedral, which are full of Prague's unique charm. If your legs allow, you can climb up the Petrin Hill to overlook the entire city, which is a beautiful view.
💰 Pay attention to currency exchange and payment methods
In Prague, although credit cards are accepted in many places, there are still some small shops or restaurants that only accept cash payments. The local currency is the Czech Koruna (CZK), which is best exchanged at large banks or certified money changers in the city center. Avoid money changers in tourist areas as they may charge high fees or offer poor exchange rates. In addition, be careful of the extra fees charged by some ATMs and choose bank ATMs with good reviews to withdraw money.
