What travelers are saying
- AnetteGothenburg, Sweden54 contributionsA real masterpiece and a must to see when you are in Prague .
To be able to see the performance correctly, every hour, you should stand just in front of the clock, you can then see the figures when the gaps open and the kucku soundsWritten September 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Go across the street and eat at Terasa U Prince for that Instagram bucket list selfie.Written October 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TravelingSoccerLoonSaint Paul, MN5,970 contributionsWenceslas Square is the commercial and cultural center of New Town in Prague. At the top of the half mile square is the National Museum and in the center is the equestrian statue of Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia. The square is flanked by shopping arcades, office buildings, hotels, restaurants, bars, clubs, fast food chains and cafes. Site of many historical events and it is a traditional setting for demonstrations, celebrations, and other public gatherings. During the Velvet Revolution in 1989 against Soviet influence, large demonstrations with hundreds of thousands of people were held here. It is also the site that student Jan Palach set himself on fire in 1969 to protest the 1968 Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. There is a memorial displayed remembering his sacrifice. Wenceslas Square is a bustling area but is quite commercialized. It gives you a taste of the "real" Prague although I prefer the Old Town and Lesser Town as a tourist visiting the city for the first time.Written September 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Koen V72 contributionsfirst we went to the basement, there's a short movie playing and some information panels about the history.
Then we went all the way up.
At the top you've got an amazing view over the Charles Bridge and the river

- TravelingSoccerLoonSaint Paul, MN5,970 contributionsQuaint lane at Prague Castle that was once a medieval merchant street. Several exhibits can be viewed including a small museum containing displays of armor and a former dungeon. There are also several shops, and you can see the former temporary residence of Franz Kafka from 1916-17 in #22. You will need to purchase a combo ticket for entrance to Golden Lane. It is usually packed with tourists taking away the quaintness of the street. Visit early or late in the day after 430p although it closes at 5pm. The remainder of the Prague Castle grounds are open until 10pm.Written September 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TravelingSoccerLoonSaint Paul, MN5,970 contributionsSurrounded by the attractive renaissance gardens, the Waldstein Palace is the home of the Czech senate. Entry is free but only open to the public on weekends. I did not go inside but I have read that touring the interior is of only average interest. However, you can spend 40 minutes wandering around the beautiful gardens that contain fountains, ponds, statues, and peacocks. There is also an owl enclosure near the grotto.Written September 23, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Prague Filmsets27 contributionsThe "Lennon Wall" was created here as a spontaneous reaction to the killing of John Lennon in New York, as a place of remembrance. People started writing messages and bringing flowers. But unfortunately, as in any totalitarian regime, the communists saw this as an undesirable expression of freedom and the wall was painted over several times, first in green, later always in white. However, the messages and graffiti were always restored, thanks to the understanding of the Knights of Malta, who own the wall as part of the building. Did you know that Yoko Ono also wrote on the wall? You can find out when and what she wrote here, plus lots of other interesting information about the interesting films that have been made around the wall on the tours I organise.Written June 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kelly JCroydon, UK126 contributionsA cool thing to do as you pass by….don’t blink and miss it as you could mistake it as a restaurant entrance (which is kind of is)….pop down & back again or have a drink/ eat at the restaurant below.Written June 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ERFSU82Wellington, FL2,004 contributionsInteresting piece of art that’s almost unnoticeable unless you’re looking for it. Worth seeing if you’re in the area. It’s in Old Town, not far from the Astronomical Clock.Written July 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sue MWilliamsburg, VA1,535 contributionsWe traversed this square when we were walking over to GamberRosso for dinner - it is a large square with major shopping and very distinctive so a great landmark when getting back to the Hilton Prague.Written May 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Tiberiu_BaranyiTimisoara, Romania17,327 contributionsAs you walk near the Vaclav square - you will find several cover gallerias and arcades - these are very nice when the weather is pour , so you can move around inside a warm dry place.
One of the most interesting - and very beautiful - arcades is the Lucerna arcade.
Decorations inside are very beautiful, inspired of the architecture of the late 19th early 20th century.
Also inside this arcade you shall find the upside down statue of King Vaclav riding a dead horse (this has also a very interesting story attached to it - check out the review to it, or look it up on the web , it is really interesting).
When we were visiting Prague , the weather was kind of cold - so we decided to take a walk through the arcade - plus I wanted to show my girlfriend the king on the dead horse , after we've seen the Vaclav monument in the square.
So when you are in the Vaclav square, remember this small detour - it is very interesting, with some very nice architectural features - and if you are visiting close to Christmas time, there will be also some seasonal decorations also.Written January 14, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
