    Great museum which tells you something more about most crucial ideology in human kind, it opens more about czechian history and culture

    Following a long walk through the sidesteps and up a steep hill we found this restaurant and brewery. It's very popular,so we had to wait. Seats outside we ordered two different beers, one dark, one light and a very tasty goulash soup. This was accompanied by white and brown bread. Followed by a delicious apple strudel.

    Staff friendly and good choice of beers and things to eat. From here we walked through several sqares past beautiful view points to Charles Brige.. A long downhill walk with stunning scenery

    We opted for the self-guided audio tour and it wasn’t done well. It’s quite confusing and difficult to follow.
    The Spanish Synagogue by far the more interesting and easy to follow, without the guide. Much more interactive and presented personal stories of Czech citizens and/or Holocaust survivors. You won’t want to miss the cemetery — it’s so humbling.

    I wanted to see archaeology but never found any! Fossils were well displayed but there was no geological timeframe.
    Early history had some interesting objects but pretty disappointing for a national museum. Fair enough, there was a lot of Czech history, but that was not interesting for this tourist.
    The ‘buffet’ was just a small counter with a few sandwiches and cakes and very limited seats (lots of people sat on the floor).
    Mobile ticket bought in advance worked on and off.

    Lovely walk through some very beautiful baroque rooms. Very tranquil as off the bean track but well worth a visit.
    There was an interesting 1st floor exhibition comparing Prague and Vienna.

    Nice museum near the Jewish quarter to visit. It was relatively cool inside and had very few tourists, so a wonderful peaceful place to visit on a hot day. We were left with a real feel for Czech culture and history with the exhibits.

    This is an amazing art gallery. It is extremely worthwhile moving out of the main centre of Prague to visit this fantastic building. The ticket allows you to visit three huge floors absolutely packed with interesting artworks not just from domestic artists but also a selection of world-wide names. It is huge and you can easily spend 3 -4 hours here. everything is well presented in English and the way the pieces are organised are well thought through. Fantastic place. The actual building itself is well worth the visit. Overall, exceeds many of the more well-known European tourist art destinations.

    The senior lady who conducts the tour, Milenka, is the soul of the house. We came out of this experience very enriched thanks to her knowledge. The tour lasts 60 min and there is a video after about the renovation of the villa which we recommend as you will appreciate the restoration work in details. The girls at the ticket disk are extremely friendly and helpful.

    We visited the new museum which connected to the old museum by an underground passageway which played a video of Prague's history. The natural history part of the museum is a little complicated to find but once you find it you are amazed.

    This palace is up on top of the hill near the castle and the cool old church. The palace is impressive. It’s interesting to see how people lived back a few centuries. Well, the Rick and powerful people.

    Catching the metro from Malostranska Metro Station I wandered into the pretty garden area behind the station ,an oasis of calm with a nice cafe bar in ,lots of statue's in this garden area and backing onto the garden area is the building that's home to National Gallery Of Prague .
    Waldstein Riding School is a great looking building ,very photogenic ,it's a building and exhibition centre to most definitely check out if you're in the area and easy to locate on Valdstejnska in the Lesser Town.

    A very interesting and entertaining museum. Beautifully set out in a very modern, non-stuffy style but above all VERY detailed. It helps if you have at least a vague idea of whom Emperor Charles or Karl IV was (he virtually created the Prague we see today - Charles Bridge, the castle) or an interest in medieval history.
