Petrin Observation Tower
To reach the summit and the Observation Tower (Lookout), take the funicular up Petřín Hill from Ujezd Street in Mala Strana. The climb of 299 stairs (the tower is 60 metres high) is worth the magnificent view and on a clear day it is possible to see the highest peak in the Czech Republic, Snezka, which is 150 km from the tower.
Admission: 60 CZK
Opening hours: 10am-5pm (until 10pm May-Sep)
