I’ve been to Prague just a few occasions (it’s simply so near Berlin) and whereas I’ve had a good vacation each time, it’s taken quite a lot of effort to seek out the cool issues to do there. Positive, I’ve had enjoyable and I’ve met folks every time. However maybe due to Prague’s bustling vacationer exercise, discovering the offbeat and different issues to do could be a problem. Listed here are seven of my favourite vacationer actions in Prague.
Enjoyable Issues To Do in Prague
The Kafka Museum
I visited the Kafka Museum on my very first go to to Prague in 2006 and it was one of the crucial memorable locations I visited. From it’s surrealist environment on the within, to the quirky and simply plain bizarre displays about Kafka, I bought misplaced inside and ended up there for just a few hours. It’s a surreal journey into the unusual world of Kafka and simply outdoors is certainly one of Prague’s most iconic statues—a fountain of two standing males peeing (by the native legendary sculptor David Černý).
Prague Meals Excursions
Czech delicacies possibly isn’t as well-known as different European meals, however there are a shocking quantity of candy and savory dishes value making an attempt. There are a selection of various Prague meals excursions happening within the metropolis, however quite a lot of them appear to cease at a number of the identical foodie hotspots.
There’s the Sisters Bistro the place you possibly can strive open-faced sandwiches, and naturally the bohemian Café Louvre which has hosted Kafka and Einstein earlier than. Meals excursions are an effective way to absorb the native tradition in probably the most appetizing means. Plus: ROAST PORK! (and dumplings, too I suppose).
The Dancing Home
Okay, that is much less of a cool factor to do and extra of a cool constructing that’s worthy of Instagram snaps. Designed by Frank Gehry, the Dancing Home is close to the water and makes an excellent spot for sundown pictures. There’s even a lodge inside with fairly respectable charges!
David Černý’s sculptures round city
David Černý is a Czech sculpture and town is virtually overflowing along with his public works. There’s an upside-down horse in Lucerna Pasaz (a mall) within the Outdated City, a group of infants crawling up the Žižkov TV Tower and the Piss Sculpture outdoors the Kafka Museum.
Guide one of many extra bohemian strolling excursions to be sure you’ll go previous a few of David Černý’s public sculptures; generally they’re hiding in plain sight!
Membership Termix & the MeetFactory
A visit to Prague wouldn’t be full and not using a little bit of nightlife. The town is virtually crawling with EasyJet-setters from throughout Western Europe each weekend. A budget beer in all probability helps, nevertheless it’s the superb nightlife scene which retains folks coming again for increasingly. Together with myself! Regardless of by no means coming away completely impressed with town, I at all times handle to have some enjoyable within the golf equipment.
Membership Termix is a hip homosexual bar with younger crowds and a secret buzzer to get in. There are themed celebration nights and a complete automotive hanging from the ceiling. I’ve positively been noticed there dancing on tables and not using a shirt! It’s certainly one of my favourite homosexual golf equipment in Europe 🙂
Prague can be residence to the MeetFactory—a warehouse transformed to a cool artwork & exhibition house that doubles as an artist residency in addition to live performance and occasion venue. Simply outdoors the doorway, a automotive can be bolted to the aspect of the constructing above the principle door; should be a Czech factor!
The membership was arrange as an worldwide heart for modern artwork in 2001 by none apart from the artist David Černý.
Go away your mark John Lennon Wall
Joke about this, truly. On my very first go to to Prague, I got here residence with just a few hundred pictures over the weekend journey. One in every of them was this actually fairly shot I had of some graffiti and, years later once I was trying via my journey pictures, I noticed it was in all probability from the legendary John Lennon Wall.
Because the Eighties guests have left drawings and writings on this small stretch of wall simply across the nook from the Charles Bridge. Earlier than the top of the Soviet occupation, younger Czechs left Beatles-inspired graffiti right here and now the wall fills with new artistic endeavors and inspiration day-after-day.
Keep in a cool lodge! Resort Fusion Prague
I’ve stayed at a number of hostels in Prague—principally as a result of every weekend metropolis break is extra about exploring town, partying, and having enjoyable, then it’s a few quiet or romantic go to. This boutique design lodge is a superb selection on a funds (you’ll discover rooms for as little as 65€ per night time!).
It’s steps away from Wenceslas Sq. which is the best choice for a lodge—completely located between Outdated City Prague with its historical past (and dorky Astronomical Clock) and the trendier neighborhoods of Vinohrady and Žižkov.
