About Praga

Praga innalza le sue guglie sulla Moldava, con il castello sulla collina, il ponte pieno di statue e un centro medievale rimasto quasi intatto.

Il Castello di Praga, uno dei più vasti complessi castellani al mondo, corona la collina di Hradčany, con la cattedrale di San Vito al centro e le minuscole case del Vicolo d'Oro nascoste dietro. Più in basso, i palazzi barocchi e i giardini a terrazze di Malá Strana scendono verso il Ponte Carlo, fiancheggiato da statue di santi e animato fin dall'alba.

Top-ranked sights in Praga: Charles Bridge (Karluv Most), Prague Castle (Pražský Hrad), Prague Old Town Square (Staromestské Námestí).
