Olšany: the city of the dead and Kafka's grave
The largest cemetery in Prague, its tree-lined avenues, and a quiet grave in the one next door.

One of the largest equestrian statues on earth, a granite mausoleum, and the green ridge over the city.

Žižkov: the tower, the babies, and the pubs
Černý's crawling babies on a space-age tower, then the densest grid of pubs in the city.

A district drowned in 2002 and rebuilt, a neo-Romanesque church, and 1840s railway arches full of cafés.
Wenceslas Square and the arcades behind it
The 1989 boulevard, then off it: the Lucerna's upside-down horse and the hidden pasáže.
