So much has already been written and told about Prague that I don’t want to bore you with yet another enumeration of sights and various historical narratives. Today I’ll just show you the views of Prague from different viewing platforms and briefly talk about them. If you are in doubt whether it is worth coming here, perhaps this post of mine will help you finally decide. Personally, I remember Prague the most and liked its hilly location and views from different parts of the city. Enjoy!

1. We rented an apartment relatively close to Zizkov TV Tower, so the first thing we went to her. Exactly this high building not only Prague, but the whole Czech Republic (260 m.)

2. Unfortunately, the observation deck is not at the very top, but only at the level of 93 meters, but the views from it are steep

3. The observation deck is open from 8 am to midnight, you can take the elevator

4. Entrance is paid, it costs 230 Czech crowns (almost 700 rubles), a lot, agree

5. The main disadvantage is that the entire observation deck is fenced, there is no access to the street at all, so you have to admire the city through dirty and cloudy glass (for such an entrance price they could wash it, I think)

6. And from the pros - a 360-degree view

7. View from charles bridge, one of the main attractions of the city

8. Admission is free;)

9. Next lookout - Petrin Tower, the lift is also paid, it costs 120 kroons (360 rubles), there is no elevator, so you have to go up on foot, the lookouts are on two levels

10. The tower itself is not very high (only 80 meters, including the antenna), but since it is on top of a hill, the views from it are excellent

11. There are windows on the observation deck from which you can take normal pictures without fear of dirty glasses

12. Prague is a very green city

13. In the center of the frame - Charles Bridge, it can be hard to see here, but there are a lot of people there, the whole bridge is literally packed with people

14. Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral

15.

16. The giant Strahov stadium can accommodate 220 thousand (!) Spectators, but there are only 56 thousand seats. The stadium was built in 1926, at one time both sports and cultural events were held here, for example, rock legends such as the Rolling Stones, Guns N "Roses, Pink Floyd, U2, AC / DC and many others performed here

17. In the center of the frame is the Zizkov TV Tower, which we have already visited, see how much it is higher than the rest of the buildings around

18. All Prague at a glance

19. Coming down from Petrin Hill you can sit on a bench absolutely free of charge to admire the views of the city, which are not much inferior to those that open from the tower

20. You can also come to the fortress absolutely free of charge Visegrad and enjoy the panorama of the area and the unhurried course of the Vltava River, which is enjoyed by both tourists and local residents

21.

22.

23. View towards the city from the other side of the Vysehrad fortress

24. There is another fortress in the city - Prague Castle, this is the view from its walls, the entrance is again free, the only thing is that the guards will ask you to open the backpack and show its contents

25. Not far from Prague Castle are Hotkov gardens, in themselves are not remembered for anything special, but in some places you can see something like this. City like a toy

By the way, in the title photo for this post - a view from one of the hills in the park Latna, not far from Prague metronome, on the site of which there used to be a monument to Dzhugashvili (Stalin).

26. The photos below are from the same park

27. This is not all viewing platforms, which are in Prague, but even bypassing the above, I really liked the city. On some of them you just want to sit and enjoy, drinking water / coffee / beer / wine (choose according to the situation), it’s even better if your loved one shares this moment with you, but singles will also like it here

Thank you for attention!

Prague is a European city with a long history that fills its squares, streets and buildings. You can see the whole city at a glance from one of the many observation platforms that are located on the towers and hills. Panorama lovers and photographers will especially appreciate the following selection of heights. We have collected the main panoramic views of Prague.

The most high point Prague - (Petřínská rozhledna), which is often called Prague's Eiffel Tower. Its height is 80 meters, but the upper platform is at a height of 55 meters. The convenient location on the hill of the same name allows you to see the whole of Zlata Prague and its surroundings from a height. On the tower, one above the other, there are two observation platforms, which can be accessed both by a staircase encircling the tower in a spiral from the outside, and by an elevator. Lifting is paid. But it’s still worth visiting the tower - on a clear day from the top platform you can even see the mountains, which are located at a distance of 150 kilometers from Prague.

At the foot of the tower on a hill 318 meters high are the Petrin Gardens - vast areas planted with various trees, and apple and pear trees grow in one of the corners of the park. You can get there in one of the funicular cabins, which have been carrying passengers for 130 years. The Nebozizek panoramic restaurant is located on the hill, from which you can see the Vltava River and the Charles Bridge in detail. Not far from the tower of the same name is a luxurious rose garden, consisting of three parts, each of which was given its own special shape. Blooming roses look great from the observation decks of the tower.

The tower of the largest and most famous cathedral in Prague - the Cathedral - is the second highest observation deck in the city. The total height of the southern tower of the cathedral is 96 meters, the observation deck is slightly lower. Climbing the 300 steps without a lift and with a few respite areas is not for everyone, but the view from up there is worth the effort. Old and New Prague are visible at a glance, you can easily see others memorable places, which are located nearby, and the sea of ​​Prague's red and brown roofs looks as peculiar as in any other city.

Made in the Gothic style, this 56-meter tower is one of the unique buildings of medieval Prague. Initially, it was used as an observation and watchtower: they watched the city from it and notified about the outbreak of fires. The peculiarity of climbing this tower is that not steps lead to the observation gallery, but inclined plates. Instead of walking, you can use a modern elevator. Before visitors to the gallery appears beautiful view to the Old City. In addition, the tower is famous - it is unique watch, which not only show the time of day, day, month, year, the time of moonrise and sunset, and the location of the signs of the Zodiac, but every hour before the chiming clock they show a small performance from the repertoire of medieval puppet theaters. What makes the watch unique is that it was created in stages, from the 15th to the 19th century.

On both sides of the bridge are the Old Town and Lesser Town bridge towers. recognized as one of the most beautiful Gothic towers in Europe and is located on east coast the Vltava rivers. It was through the arch of this tower that the Czech kings entered Prague. Climbing 136 steps, you can get to the observation platform, which offers a view not only of the Old Town, but also on the opposite side of the Charles Bridge and Lesser Town bridge towers. The Lesser Town towers - Malaya and Vysoka - were built at different times, but were always part of the fortifications on the left side of the city. From the viewing gallery of the High Tower, you can clearly see the Church of St. Nicholas, located nearby. 146 steps lead to it.

Ganava Pavilion

In Prague there is another observation point of Prague -. Built as an exhibit for the Industrial Exhibition held in Prague in 1891, it is a unique technical, engineering and architectural building. After being transferred to the Letensky Gardens, a restaurant was opened in it, which is still operating. The Hanava Pavilion offers a view of the Vltava and all the bridges of Prague. Many artists come there to capture such an old, but still bewitchingly beautiful Prague Castle on their canvases.

powder tower

- unfinished gates to the Old City, which are located on Republic Square. The construction of the current tower began in the 15th century, but it was not completed, since the need for this defensive structure was no longer needed. After numerous reconstructions, the Powder Tower was decorated in a single pseudo-Gothic style, and it has remained so to this day. The building got its name due to the fact that in the 18th century the tower, covered with a temporary roof, was used as a powder warehouse.

On the outer walls of the facade of the tower you can see sculptures of its creators, the kings of the Czech Republic of different times, national saints, as well as numerous church subjects. The tower itself rises 65 meters above the city, and 186 steps lead to the second floor. The observation deck is located at a height of 44 meters and is a passage along the perimeter of the roof. You can also see the Old City from here.

Another place with an amazingly beautiful view of Prague is the tower of the Cathedral of St. Mikulas, as the famous St. Nicholas is called in the Czech Republic. In Prague, there are two cathedrals dedicated to this saint, on the Old Town Square, and the second on Lesser Town Square. The tower on Lesser Town Square is notable for the fact that it has always been the property of the city and has no direct relation to the cathedral itself, except for its location. She performed watchdog functions - from her guards monitored the safety of the city from enemies or natural disasters. In addition, the tower housed a belfry, but in 1925 a fire destroyed everything except the largest bell, which was named after the saint - "Mikulas". The observation balcony is located at a height of 65 meters and is located above the clock tower. It has a great view of the entire surrounding area.

Built in 1992. Its massive, skyward-looking forms violated the general architectural style of Prague, and the destruction of the ancient Jewish cemetery, on the site of which it was built, did not add popular love to this building. After the end of the Velvet Revolution, its supporting pillars were temporarily decorated with the works of the scandalous Czech sculptor: huge black ones, which are visible even from the Charles Bridge. The townspeople liked the decoration so much that it was decided to leave the babies.

After the TV tower was recognized as the second ugliest building in the world, the Czechs changed their attitude towards it. With the help of a major reconstruction, the tower was converted into a closed observation platform. Three separate halls are located at a height of 93 meters. They are equipped with modern equipment, providing guests with a variety of information about modern Prague. At the bottom of the tower are a restaurant, cafe and unique hotel, which has only one number.

The fortress is one of the symbols of the state of the Czech Republic. Built in the 10th century, the Vyšehrad Castle gazed indulgently at the young city busily growing under its wing. From the walls of the castle, Princess Libuse predicted world fame and prosperity for Prague. The capital of the Czech Republic really took worthy place among European capitals, in the 19th century incorporating Vysehrad, which is now one of the districts of Prague. From the observation platforms of Vysehrad, an unforgettable view of the whole city, its ancient and modern quarters opens up.

The most visited by tourists observation deck is located right next to the fortress wall of the Prague Castle. From a wide platform, the Old and New town. Among the numerous roofs, you can see the Church of St. Nicholas, which is located on Lesser Town Square, and in the distance you can see the two towers of the Church of the Virgin Mary on Old Town Square. It is believed that it is from this observation deck that the most best view to an amazing European city - Golden Prague.

Prague is beautiful not only when walking along small cozy streets, but also when examining interesting architectural structures from high. The orange roofs of the houses are especially beautiful. When you go up to some observation deck, you just want to sit on a bench and admire Prague. Therefore, in this post I will talk about some of the observation decks in Prague.

Hill Petrin

• How to get there and address: the closest tram stop to Petřín Hill is Újezd, from which the funicular goes up the hill. A ticket for the funicular costs the same as a ticket for, and you can buy it from the machine before boarding the funicular (the machine only accepts coins). The following trams run to the Újezd ​​stop: 9, 12, 20, 22 and night trams 57, 58, 59. Tower address: Petřínská rozhledna, Petřínské sady.
• : 120 CZK - adult ticket. For children, students and pensioners, the entrance fee is 65 CZK.

I consider the best observation deck in Prague to be 327 meters high with eiffel tower(Petrinskaya tower) on it. Height eiffel tower- 60 meters. Be sure to climb this hill and tower to enjoy the magnificent panorama of Prague. The ascent is on foot, but there are no crowds of tourists, and this is the highest point in Prague. In addition to the tower, excellent views of Prague open up from other points on the hill.

Letensky Gardens

• How to get there and address: gardens are called Letenské sady in Czech. There are at least 5 tram stops around the garden, but it is more convenient to start the walk from the Letenské náměstí stop, to which trams of the following routes go: 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 25, 26.
• The cost of visiting the lookout: for free

The second place in the list of the best viewing places in Prague I give Letensky Gardens(Letenské sady), which are a hill overlooking the city. This garden is also popular for relaxing and walking among Praguers, who have picnics here and drink Czech beer under the crowns of chestnut trees. Photos from Letensky gardens with bridges will not leave anyone indifferent. And the Hanavský pavilon restaurant often hosts wedding photo shoots.

Zizkov TV Tower

• The cost of visiting the lookout: 230 CZK - adult ticket. There are discounts for children, pensioners and students.

From the TV tower in the Zizkov area ( Žižkovský vysílač) offers a great view, and given that it has a restaurant, you can romantically meet the sunset or continue the evening in a bar located on the same tower.

St. Vitus Cathedral

• How to get there and address: the nearest stop to Prague Castle is called Pražský hrad, trams No. 22, 23, 41 go to it.

So Old Town Hall(Staroměstská radnice), which is located on, offers a good view of Prague Castle, Paris Street, the Powder Tower and other main ones. From the Town Hall you will feel the city in a completely different way.

The nearby houses with red-orange tiled roofs look especially cute from the tower.

Visegrad

• How to get there and address: the best way to get to the hill is by metro, you need to go along the red line to the Vyšehrad station.
• The cost of visiting the lookout: for free

One of my favorite viewpoints in Prague is the hill, which offers interesting views of Prague and its tiled roofs. There are several advantages when walking around Vysehrad: the absence of tourists, the shade of trees and the opportunity to see several districts of Prague from a height for free. In addition, you can have a small picnic here, taking drinks, fruits and some buns from the store.

Old Town Tower Charles Bridge

Prague (Czech Republic) - the most detailed information about the city with a photo. The main attractions of Prague with descriptions, guides and maps.

City of Prague (Czech Republic)

Food and drink

In Prague great amount restaurants and cafes for every taste and budget. It is simply a paradise for gourmets and gastronomic tourists. Czech, European and Asian cuisine is mainly represented. It is logical what to eat in tourist center cities will be much more expensive than on the outskirts. But at the same time, the prices do not look exorbitant and affordable for most tourists.

Voles and garlic are usually prepared from soups. The list of desserts is usually not long and is represented by different types of pastries - strudel, sweet dumplings, trdelniki.

Beer is a separate issue. Prague and the Czech Republic as a whole are strongly associated with this drink. There are a lot of pubs here. Beer is served in almost all restaurants and cafes. Here you can taste both famous brands of beer - Budweiser, Krusovice, Kelt, Pilsner, Gambrinus, Kozel, as well as products of small breweries. The most popular beer is draft. It is stored in metal kegs.

Light (lighter) and dark (tmawe) beer is mainly distributed. Dark beer is usually softer. Beer is the national drink of the Czech Republic, so almost everywhere it is very tasty and of excellent quality, and sometimes it is also cheaper than other drinks.

Attractions

The main attractions of Prague, which every tourist must see.

(Czech Vyšehrad) - an ancient fortress (castle) and historical area. Vysehrad is located on a hill above the Vltava south of the city center. From here you have a beautiful view of Prague.

Also in Visegrad itself there are several interesting sights. Within the walls of the ancient fortress are: the neo-Gothic basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, the remains of an ancient Romanesque basilica, the Romanesque rotunda of St. Martin, the Vysehrad cemetery (the burial place of famous figures of the Czech Republic).

(Czech Karlův most) - a beautiful stone bridge across the Vltava, connecting the historical districts of Mala Strana and Stare Mesto. This is one of the main symbols of Prague and probably the most beautiful stone bridge in the world. It began to be exploited as early as 1380.

According to legend, the first stone was laid in 1357 by Charles IV, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. For a long time, the Charles Bridge connected Stare Mesto and Mala Strana and served for the passage of kings and delegations to Prague Castle. The entrance to the bridge is adorned on both sides by magnificent Gothic bridge towers: the Old Town Tower (Staroměstská mostecká věž) and the Lesser Town Towers (Malostranská mostecká věž).

The Powder Tower (Czech Prašná brána) is a majestic Gothic tower built in the 15th century. The Powder Tower is located on Republic Square.

Prague Castle

(Czech Staroměstské náměstí) is one of the most beautiful old Prague squares, located in historical center towns in the Stare Mesto area. On the square bizarrely mixed different architectural styles: gothic, renaissance, baroque, rococo. The Old Town Square embodies the spirit of Prague, so all tourists should definitely visit here.

The Old Town Hall is a famous landmark of the Old Town Square. This is one of the most important and beautiful buildings in this historic district of Prague. The foundation of the town hall dates back to the 14th century. At a height of 70 meters there is an observation deck, which can be climbed on weekdays from 9.00 to 19.00, and on weekends from 9.00 to 18.00. It offers stunning views of Old city. The medieval astronomical clock, also called the Prague Astronomical Clock or Orloj, is located on south wall town hall. It is one of the most famous astronomical clocks in the world and is very popular among tourists thanks to a small performance that takes place every hour from 8.00 to 20.00.

The iconic building of Prague, one of the most impressive Gothic structures in Europe and business card. Its pointed spiers pierce the sky, and the temple dominates the square, hidden behind the facades of houses, but at the same time being the most visible part of it. The Tyn Church is an extensive gothic, renaissance and early baroque gallery, and its organ is the oldest in Prague.

The history of the temple begins in the 12th century. Already at that time, a Romanesque basilica was built in its place. In the 14th century, the history of the modern Tyn Church began, when rich Praguers decided to build here new church. The construction of the temple continued until the beginning of the 16th century. In the 17th century the interior was reconstructed in the Baroque style.

The Tyn Church came to us through the centuries practically undamaged, not counting a couple of fires, after which the northern tower and the vault of the nave were restored.

The Dancing House is an office building in Prague. The building was built in the style of deconstructivism. It consists of two cylindrical towers, one of which is normal and the other is destructive. The Dancing House stands out sharply from the surrounding architecture. The dancing house resembles a dancing couple. One part of the building (the one that expands upward) symbolizes a male figure, and the second part of the building visually resembles a female figure.

Clementium (Czech Klementinum) is an architectural complex located in the historic district of Stare Mesto. This is one of the largest architectural complexes city ​​second only to Prague Castle.

Josefov (Czech Josefov) is the Jewish quarter and one of the most mystical and mysterious places cities. It is located in the Prague 1 district. Until 1850 it was the center of the Jewish community. The name of the quarter comes from the name of Emperor Joseph II, who improved the life of the Jews during the reforms. The Jewish Quarter is located between the right bank of the Vltava River and the Old Town Square.

Kampa Island (Czech. Kampa) - artificial island in Prague, called the "Prague Venice". This is an amazingly picturesque and romantic place. You can get to the island of Kampa by going down the stairs from the Charles Bridge, right behind the statue of Brunswick. On the one hand, Kampa is separated by the majestic Vltava, on the other hand - Devil, one of its branches.

Kampa Island was formed around the 15th century. It was originally covered in gardens. But after a fire in 1541, from which Prague suffered greatly, the remains of damaged buildings began to be brought to the island. Due to this, it was possible to level the surface and build up the island. Artisans were the first to settle here. Behind them, wealthy people began to inhabit the island.

Now on the island of Kampa there are many cafes, restaurants with excellent views of the Vltava and Charles Bridge, many hotels. On the island, it is pleasant to stroll along the banks of the Vltava and Chertovka, admire the architecture of buildings that are located at the very edge of the water.

How can I save up to 20% on hotels?

Everything is very simple - look not only on booking.com. I prefer the RoomGuru search engine. He searches for discounts simultaneously on Booking and 70 other booking sites.
