Going to Prague and only know about the Castle? This guide helps you unlock hidden gems.

🌈Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is known as the "Golden City" and the "City of a Thousand Spires," famous for its magnificent medieval architecture and romantic scenery. 🚶Tourist Route: Dancing House - Hanging Man - Kafka's Rotating Head - Havel Market - Astronomical Clock - Old Town Square - Library - Charles Bridge - Lennon Wall - Prague Castle 🚃Transportation: You can buy a 24-hour public transport ticket at the yellow self-service ticket machines at subway entrances: Select English - click "Buy Ticket" - select "24hr" - pay. Cash, cards, and Apple Pay are accepted. After receiving the ticket, remember to insert it into the entry gate machine to print the start time (if you don't, you'll be fined for fare evasion if checked). 🍚Food: ✨After visiting the library at noon, we had a simple lunch at a nearby cafe called Cafe 11, a 5-minute walk away. The yogurt there is delicious, highly recommended! After seeing all the sights, we had dinner at a Chinese restaurant called "Chuan Wang Fu." The boiled beef and twice-cooked pork were quite good, recommended; the dry pot cabbage was too spicy and not tasty, not recommended. 🕹️Experience: The entire city is truly beautiful. Under the bright sun, it's like a rich palette.🎨 The architectural style is ornate, complex, and diverse, like being in a fairy tale and a medieval European town. We took many amazing photos, it's just too beautiful! ⛲️Attractions: -Dancing House: The building symbolizes a dancing couple, with two towers closely connected. The glass structure represents the female dancer (waist tightened, skirt flowing), and the concrete tower represents the male dancer, with the metal structure at the top symbolizing his hat. -Kafka's Rotating Head: An 11-meter metal mechanical sculpture composed of 42 independently rotating stainless steel plates, symbolizing the themes of split personality and identity anxiety in Kafka's works. -Havel Market: Originally a food market, it now mainly sells tourist souvenirs and handicrafts. It's a good place to buy souvenirs. -Prague Astronomical Clock: An ancient medieval astronomical clock with hourly figures appearing on the hour, worth seeing. -Charles Bridge: Thirty Baroque statues stand on the bridge. Strolling along the bridge, you can admire the Old Town towers, ancient buildings, and river cruises. -Prague Castle: Climbing the tower inside offers a panoramic view of Prague. Be sure to note the opening hours: 9:00 am–5:00 pm in summer, 9:00 am–4:00 pm in winter. We missed it because we remembered the wrong time and ended up rushing to another hilltop tower to photograph the Prague sunset panorama! 🔔Tips: Be sure to bring your passport and other documents, keep them safe, and take anti-theft measures. The current exchange rate is 25 Czech koruna = 1 euro, 3 Czech koruna = 1 RMB. We didn't exchange for Czech cash and used Revolut, Apple Pay, etc., throughout the trip without any problems.
