As the main attraction, the magnificence and majesty of the St. Vitus Cathedral stands out among many structures in the castle complex. Its looming Gothic towers on the intricate western façade are prominent figures on the city’s skyline attracting your first glance but don’t miss the priceless 14th-century mosaic on its southern façade, which depicts the Last Judgment in Italian style.
Next, visit the St. Nicholas Church, the most famous Baroque church in Prague and also one of the most valuable Baroque buildings north of the Alps. Its imposing dome and the highest interior in the city, which is lavishly decorated with statues, paintings, and frescoes by leading artists of the day, offer an ultimate Baroque experience in the serene music from the 18th-century organ.
Then, cross the Charles Bridge to leave the Lesser Town for the Old Town, nestling on the other side of the atmospheric Vltava River. The fairy-tale views are complemented by the cheerful street artists, vendors, and beautiful intricate statues scattered along the cobblestoned bridge. On both ends of the photogenic stonework, two stunning Gothic towers majestically stand as a testament to the rich architectural and cultural heritage.
Proceed to browse through the splendid showcase of historical architecture in the enchanting Old Town, among which the Medieval Tower Clock is one of the most outstanding. One interesting fact about the engineering masterwork is when the sophisticated clock on the façade strikes the hour (from 9 a.m to 11 p.m), the procession of the Twelve Apostles sculptures sets in motion.
Finally, have a break, and maybe a nice snack, at the Havelský Market, the only preserved marketplace in Old Town. Dating back to 1232, the cozy market has been a lovely gathering point where greengrocers, florists, and craftsmen set up their colorful stands displaying fresh produce, souvenirs, food, and refreshments.
