Gothic and baroque, and one of the few central European capitals that came through the twentieth century intact. Castle, bridge, old town, and beer priced like a soft drink.
Free things to do
Free
Charles Bridge at dawn
Thirty baroque statues and half a kilometre of it, and before seven you'll share it with the swans and a few photographers. The bridge towers are the ticketed part.
Free
Old Town Square & the astronomical clock
The apostles come out on the hour for about forty seconds; the crowd is the show. Six hundred years old, and the square around it is free to stand in — the tower lift isn't.
