PRAGUE GUIDE

The atmosphere of a beautiful blossom garden should be felt by Prague’s visitors when strolling around Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square. There are 89 Easter market stalls on Old Town Square and 62 on Wenceslas Square, as well as other food stalls.

Prague is a beautiful, mysterious and marvelously romantic city. It is the right place to be during the celebrations of Saint Valentine's Day. Just explore all corners of this ancient metropolis, stop at some of the typical cafés or restaurants, enjoy a ride on a horse team through a historical downtown, or get on a boat cruise featuring dinner.

The smell of mulled wine and Christmas sweets, the warmth of roasted chestnuts in your hands, the melody of carols, decorated streets, folk markets and Christmas trees on every square, that’s Christmas in Prague. And if you’re lucky, you might even see Prague covered in a snow-white blanket.

During the New Year’s celebrations there are a lot of things to choose from, no matter what age you are or what your tastes are. Here we bring you some suggestions:

Celebrate St Patrick's Day in a city where, in typical Czech style, they have stretched this festive day into a week of celebrations. On a day when everyone becomes at least a little bit Irish, why not visit one of Prague's many Irish pubs.

Easter is a very important Christian holiday, and in Prague it is celebrated very much in that spirit. It is also a holiday time when families travel and get together. While walking Prague’s paved streets you will notice market stalls and flower decorations, Easter eggs smiling from shop windows.

This is the most popular and biggest fair (Theme Park) in Prague, and indeed the Czech Republic, and also the first spring fair in Europe. St Matthew's Fair, known as Matějská pouť to the locals.

There is always something happening all year round. For most events you can buy tickets online or at Prague's numerous tickets agents and very often tickets are also available at the door too.
