Happen to stumble onto this charming hotel/cafe/restaurant while I was strolling along on Nový Svět. The hotel looks like a house in a small village and the interior spacing is very well decorated. If you like the orange roofing, red and brown bricks, stones, pottery, metal works and wood beams then this place is for you, too. Situated short strolled distance west from Prague Castle and north of Černín Palace & Loreto. A wonderful picturesque walled village like feel to get away from massive tourists. Stroll along where the locals have a special place in their hearts for this street. Find a cafe or restaurants, relax and enjoy the scenery. Tram #22 & #23 stops near by at Brusnice stop, a block or two north.
One of the most beautiful cities in Europe with great history, culture & architecture. European backyard city where I enjoy returning time & time again.
Walk the Charles Bridge from the 14th Century (started in 1357 & finished 1402), it's the bridge that connects the Old Town (Staré Mesto) to the Lesser Town (Malá Strana). Explore the other bridges to cross from east to west, too. It literally takes less than 2 minutes to cross, unless you still think you are in a dreamland, but that's ok, you're in Prague!
Go visit the Prague Castle before tourists flock there, best time to arrive is 6:00AM-9:00AM or after 5:00PM (17:00), Prague Castle is from the 9th Century, which seated Bohemian kings, Roman Emperors, presidents of Czechoslovakia & presidents of Czech Republic. *Vaclav Havel was the last Czechoslovakian president & the first Czech Republic president* Prague Castle is the largest lived-in ancient castle in the world according to the Guinness Record. Both Prague Castle & Charles Bridge are on the UNESCO World Heritage sites.
*A small tip, Golden Lane will be free after 5PM* Golden Lane built in 16th Century to house the guards but in 17th Century, it housed Goldsmiths. Charming street within the castle wall.
Go to Old Town, figure out how the Astronomical Clock (Prague Orloj) works & what each characters represent. Orloj is from the 1410, third oldest clock in the world & oldest surviving clock in the world. Take a picture with Tyn Church in the background. Have a seat near Jan Hus (John Huss) & his followers statue. A theologian and a philosopher who along with his followers were burnt alive because he was a church reformer. He is considered pre-Protestant & was known 100 years before Martin Luther. Visit the St. Nicholas church in the Old Town, Orthodox church. *There is another St. Nicholas in Lesser Town and is Gothic Parish* One was built by a father & the other was by his son of Dientzenhofer family. Both are Baroque in style. BTW...there are 3 St. Nichiolas.
If you are overwhelmed by the mass tourists have a drink, a dessert & people/boat/geese watch at the Vltava River waterfront (Náplavka). There are boat floating restaurants, street cafes & pub stands along the waterfront.
On each visits, I began to explore further outwards from the comfort zones of Old Town, New Town, Castle District. Don't get me wrong, those are some great historical & beautiful areas but one can not help being curious of other neighborhoods. So, join in & explore the local neighborhoods of Vyšehrad, Vinohrady, Smichov/Anděl.
On 1st visit in '13 , I stayed in Smichov/Andel (southwest of Old Town, across the Vltava River). Back then it was slightly sketchy/grey area. In '19 visit this neighborhood boomed with high level real estate, very upper-middle class area. Visit the local theaters, enjoy the relax of Petrin Park (Petřínské sady), ride a tram, ride a funicular (Angled tram, 3 stops of Újezd, Nebozízek and Petřín).
Another local area called Anděl, felt like local working class neighborhood. So many restaurants, pubs, cafes & a huge mall. Many trams stop along the Nádražní Street.
One 2nd visit, I decided to stay in another local neighborhood called Vinohrady (southeast of Old Town). In the 14h Century this neighborhood was covered with vineyards. During the visit, this area was an upcoming trendy neighborhood with full local pubs, restaurants and cafes popping out near the Peace Square (Náměstí Míru). There is a Subway/Metro stop, literally next to the church & there are plenty of tram lines that stop at the Square. Easter, this is where the locals gather to sell & buy treats, drinks, food & souvenirs for wandering tourists.
Keep the Adventure and Curiosity Alive!

Virtual Walking Tour of Prague's Center: Na Příkopě and Národní Streets ???????? Сzech Republic 4k HDR
Virtual Walking Tour of Prague's Central District, exploring Na Příkopě and Národní Streets on a Foggy Day
Na příkopě (On the moat), informally also Na Příkopě, Na Příkopech or Příkopy, is a street in the center of Prague, Czech Republic, connecting Wenceslas Square with the Republic Square. It separates the Old Town from the New Town. It is a place of representative buildings, including the headquarters of the Czech National Bank, old palaces, and luxurious shops.
Na Příkopě street leads to the site of a former 10-meter-wide and 8-meter-deep moat from 1234, which led along the medieval walls of the Old Town. Water flowed directly from the Vltava river, and when the moat was filled, the Old Town formed a closed island. The moat was covered in 1760. After coating, chestnut trees were planted here, and the street was named Ve starých alejích (In old alleys). From 1845-to 70, the street was named Kolowratská třída, and since 1871 bears the name Na Příkopě. Because it was one of the few vast streets in Prague, it soon became a traffic artery. Since 1875, the first line of the Prague horse-drawn tram has been led here, electrified since 1899. In 1919, Můstek became the first intersection in Prague controlled by a traffic policeman. In 1927, then the second intersection with the light signaling[4] (the first being Hybernská-Dlážděná-Havlíčkova intersection). In the 1960s, traffic jams were getting worse. However, in 1978 the metro station was opened at Můstek, and Line B followed the street from 1985 for almost its entire length to the Republic Square. A nearly century-old tram line was canceled in 1985, and the bustling urban street turned into a pedestrian zone. On the road appeared many new stores, and it became an important business center of the Prague promenade.
Národní, formerly Národní třída, is one of the important avenues in Prague, Czech Republic. It is placed on the boundary of New Town and Old Town, in the southwest direction from the city's center. This avenue connects the Legion Bridge bridge with Jungmannovo náměstí. In medieval times, there were fortification walls. On Friday, 17 November 1989, riot police violently suppressed a peaceful student demonstration, which is thought of as the initiation of the Velvet Revolution. Národní třída continued to be an eventful locale during the rest of the revolution.

Exploring the Charm and Atmosphere of Nymburk ???????? A Walk Through a Picturesque Czech Town 4K HDR ASMR
Welcome to Nymburk, a small town in the heart of the Czech Republic, filled with charm and character. Join us for a picturesque walk through the town's mysterious alleys and stunning architecture as we bask in the beauty of the sunset. From medieval fortifications to colorful facades of small houses, Nymburk is a true gem waiting to be discovered. Let's take a stroll and immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of this lovely town. If you watch to the end, I'll show you my favorite spot under my favorite tree! ????????
Nymburk is a town in the Nymburk district of the Central Bohemia Region, situated on the Elbe River, 45 km east of Prague, about 30 km southeast of Mladá Boleslav, and 6 km northwest of Poděbrady. It has approximately 15 thousand inhabitants and covers an area of 20.59 km². The town's historic core, with its railway and industrial tradition, is an urban conservation area.
The area of the town has been inhabited since prehistoric times, and in some periods, there was a fortress here. The settlement was concentrated in the space between Church Square and Premyslid Square. The oldest fortifications were probably built here in the Eneolithic by members of the Řivnáč culture. The undisputed archaeological traces of fortifications associated with the Lusatian culture date back to the Early Bronze Age. It is likely that the fortress also existed in the Hallstatt period. The site was also inhabited in the final phase of the Early Middle Ages, but it is unclear whether it was a hillfort or a mere courtyard at that time.
The royal town of Nymburk owes its foundation to Přemysl Otakar II. However, the exact date when the construction of Nymburk began is still not fully known. The year 1275 is currently accepted as the year of the town's foundation. At the end of the 18th century, the town's founding (Vícemílov) in 779 was rejected by the first enlighteners, as stated in the mythical Hájek Chronicle. A century later, the date of 1219 (referring to Litoměřice) was excluded, and later also the year 1257, to which the oldest surviving charter of the town of Nymburk issued for the local Dominican monastery refers. Historical research has certainly ruled out this date and, on the contrary, puts the creation of the charter for the Dominican monastery at the very end of the reign of King Přemysl Otakar II, more precisely between 25 November 1274 and 21 November 1276. Therefore, 1275 seems to be the most probable date when the king ordered the locator Konrad (sometimes referred to as Kunrát) to measure and establish the town of Nymburk.
The Gothic church of St. Giles
The name Nymburk is derived from the word Neuenburch (Latin: Novum Castrum - New Castle), but according to Hájek's Chronicle, Nymburk was formerly called Svinibrod, allegedly because pigs used to graze here in the other part, nowadays behind the Elbe River. The king settled the Dominican order here and called German and Dutch colonists to join the Czech settlers, who, over the centuries, assimilated among the Czechs (the Czech language did not prevail over the German language until the 15th century after the Hussite Wars).
However, the foundation itself was probably not completed until the reign of King Wenceslas II. During the reign of Wenceslas II, the construction of the Gothic Church of St. Nicholas (now the Church of St. Giles) and the Dominican monastery also took place. The town was surrounded by a burnt brick wall with about fifty towers and two defensive moats fed from the Elbe. The walls included four city gates and a gate to the river. The Svatojiřská gate led to the west, the Velibská or Boleslavská gate to the northwest, the Bobnická gate to the north-east and the Mostecká or Elbe gate on the south side, which was connected to a wooden bridge over the Elbe. They were demolished during the 19th century.
Renaissance Nymburk Town Hall
The town grew wealthy due to the fact that it was located at the crossroads of trade routes and gained many privileges. During the Hussite Wars, it initially supported Emperor Sigismund, but in 1421 it made an agreement with the Union of Prague and switched to the side of the cupbearer. During the reign of George of Poděbrady, Nymburk again thrived and remained a Utraquist town until the end of the 15th century; for example, a famous Latin school was established here. During the 16th century, it peaked its prosperity when the Renaissance town hall was built. At the end of the century, a post office was established in Nymburk thanks to Samuel Ignác Turnovský. During the Thirty Years' War, however, in 1634, most of the town was burnt down by the Saxons, who murdered more than 200 people in the local church. It took many decades to restore the city to live, but the original glory could not be restored due to fires, plague, and the limitations of the walls.

Is Prague Public Transport SCAMMING Tourists?
Prague scams tourists on public transport? It sounds hard to believe, but that is what dozens of tourists complain about on TripAdvisor and Google Reviews. Is it possible? Let's investigate!
Prague Public Transport is rated as one of the best public transport systems in the world. Many Czech people are proud of how cheap and efficient it is. Unfortunately, what often goes unnoticed by locals is the fact that tourists struggle with figuring out which tickets to buy and how to use them correctly. Many tourists simply rely on their instincts and mimic what they see others doing. Regrettably, this often results in them failing to validate their tickets or validating them incorrectly, leading to unpleasant encounters with public transport inspectors. Despite their efforts to do everything correctly and having paid for their tickets, they are compelled to pay fines, leaving them feeling as if they have fallen victim to one of Prague's scams.

Prague streets of Old Town walking tour ???????? Czech Republic 4k HDR ASMR
Today we will continue our walking tour through Prague's Old Town and its streets, which now look so small, but in the Middle Ages, were sometimes the main arteries of the city.
00:00 Vegetable Market Square (Ovocný trh) is a small elongated square in the area between Celetná and Rytířská streets. The marketplace existed in these places as early as the 13th century. The fruit trade prevailed there until the beginning of the 20th century. The current name has been valid since 1870. There are several important Prague buildings on the Fruit Market - the Estates Theater, Karolinum, the Kolowrat Palace, the House of the Black Madonna, and the Myslbek Palace's back wing. Today, the Fruit Market is part of the Old Town pedestrian zone.
03:00 Havel Market (Havelské tržiště) is the only preserved marketplace in the middle of old Prague, dating back to 1232. In addition to Havelská Street, where the market stalls currently stand, the original market also included the parallel Rytířská Street and the Coal Market. Today you can find a selection of fruit and vegetables and, due to its location in the city center, tourist souvenirs.
06:25 Vejvodova Street in Prague's Old Town connects Jilská and Michalská Streets. It is named after Jan Václav Vejvoda of Stromberk, who was mayor of the Old Town of Prague in 1745-57 and owned a splendid house in the street at number 2.
10:20 Řetězová Street in Prague's Old Town connects Liliová and Husova Streets. On the Liliova Street side it is just a very narrow alley paved with cat heads, the layout of which corresponds to the original medieval buildings. The street dates back to the Middle Ages. In the 14th and 15th centuries, it was called Kožešnická after the craftsmen who lived there. The current name Řetězová was given to it in the 17th century, probably after the house U Tří zlatých řetězů. However, there are other explanations for the origin of the name. Chains could have been stretched there to perform a defensive function, or even one end of a chain running across the entire width of the Vltava River (probably by means of pillars set into the water) to the other bank at Malta Square (to the Church of Our Lady under the Chain); its purpose was to hold ships and rafts until their crew paid the customs fee.
13:10 Karlova (Charles) is the name of a street in Prague's Old Town. The street winds between Malý and Křižovnické náměstí. It is headed east-west. From the east, it is connected from the left by Jilská, Jalovcová, Husova, Liliová and Smetanovo nábřeží streets. From the right, Hus, Seminářská and Křižovnická. On Křižovnické náměstí, it continues through the Charles Bridge to Malá Strana to Mostecká; the Old Town Square is connected to the Small Square. Charles Street is for pedestrians only. It is named after Charles IV. It is part of the so-called Royal Route.
14:45 Mariánské náměstí is an area with important public buildings located in the center of Prague in the Old Town district of Prague 1. The current name, which the square has borne since the 19th century, is derived from the defunct Church of Our Lady of the Louž. Originally there was a settlement called Na Louži, after which the square was named. In addition, the square was also called Ryneček u Matky Boží na Louži, Plac Matky Boží or Placek Mariánský plácek. In the years 1952-1990, it was called Mayor Dr. V. Vacko Square after the communist politician Václav Vacko (1877-1960).
19:30 Jan Palach Square (Náměstí Jana Palacha) is a town square in the Old Town of Prague. It is located on the right bank of the Vltava River, after the former Jewish Quarter. The western side of the square is adjacent to the Vltava River. The Mánes Bridge (1911–1916) connects Jan Palach Square to Malá Strana (Lesser Town) on the opposite bank. This side of the square also offers a good view of Prague Castle, Petřín Hill, and Charles Bridge. The Neo-Renaissance Rudolfinum Concert Hall (1876–1884) is on the north. The building on the eastern side (1924–1930) houses the Faculty of Arts of Charles University, and the building on the southern side (1885) belongs to the Academy of Arts, Architecture, and Design (Czech: Vysoká škola umělecko-průmyslová). There is an oversized underground parking garage under the square, with the surface structures of this facility slightly disturbing the overall impression of the square. The current name was introduced briefly in 1969–1970 and was made permanent on 20 December 1989 after the Velvet Revolution. It commemorates Jan Palach, a student who immolated himself on 16 January 1969 to protest against the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia.
