Charles Bridge
Charles Bridge is best to enjoy early in the morning, when tourist crowds still sleeping or at candlelight when are gone to the hotel before their dinner. And if you still will have some energy left it is worth to Climb Old Town Bridge Tower for a splendid view of Prague's domes and spires, the wayward line of Charles Bridge. Tower is just beside Charles Bridge.

Rating:
The 13th century Charles Bridge is usually thoroughly packed with tourists and Czechs alike, especially during the spring and summer months.
The need for building a new bridge emerged after the old Romanesque Judith Bridge (Juditin most, built around 1170 and named after king Vladislav I's wife Judith) was torn down by a flood in 1342.
Charles Bridge Statues

The alley of 30 mostly baroque statues and statuaries situated on the balustrade forms a unique connection of artistic styles with the underlying gothic bridge.
