Walks in Nové Město
Charles Square and the Heydrich crypt
Prague's largest square, the hall of the first defenestration, and the crypt where the parachutists made their last stand.
Na Příkopě and art-nouveau Prague
The old moat boulevard, the Mucha-era concert hall by the Powder Tower, and the grand banks in between.
The Dancing House and the Náplavka
Gehry's curves, the round-windowed cellar bars on the river quay, and the rock of Vyšehrad at the far end.
The Vltava islands and the National Theatre
The gold-roofed theatre, the Café Slavia, and two green islands with the castle laid out across the water.
Wenceslas Square and the arcades behind it
The 1989 boulevard, then off it: the Lucerna's upside-down horse and the hidden pasáže.

The Clementinum and the lanes between the square and the bridge
The baroque library hall, the lanes off Karlova, and where Jan Hus actually preached.
Podolí: the riverside under the Vyšehrad rock
A functionalist swimming stadium, the river path, and the basilica spires seen from below.
Vinohrady: Náměstí Míru to the Grébovka vineyard
The neo-Gothic church, the grand café streets, and a working vineyard with a grotto below it.
Smíchov: Anděl, the brewery, and the villa where Don Giovanni was finished
The brewery quarter, the garden where Mozart worked, and a quiet island on the Vltava.
