Most beautiful places to visit in Prague

Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It has a lot of history and culture, as well as great food and friendly people. However, there are some places that are more beautiful than others.

If you want to see them all before leaving Prague, here are some suggestions:

Prague National Museum

Prague National Museum is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Prague. It is located on Wenceslas Square, which is considered one of the most important squares in Europe. The museum was founded in 1918 and has been open since 1930.

The main building houses exhibits from prehistoric times until today, including Egyptian artifacts from ancient Egypt, Greek statues and Roman art pieces from ancient Rome's empire period (also known as Pax Romana), medieval weapons and armor as well as paintings by artists such as Jan Matejko or Alphonse Mucha who lived during this time period. There are also many rooms dedicated to Czech history including Bohemia's role during WWII when they were occupied by Germany first before being liberated by Russia later on during 1945-46 season.

Charles Bridge

Charles Bridge is a famous bridge in Prague. It's the oldest bridge in Prague, built in 1357 and named after King Charles IV who commissioned its construction. It's also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and considered one of Europe's most beautiful landmarks.

The span of Charles Bridge spans 1,001 feet (305 meters) from end to end and crosses over Vltava River at its narrowest point - just 400 feet (120 meters) wide! The total length of this architectural gem is about 700 meters including two side embankments leading up to it from both sides of Vltava River. This means that you can walk across Charles Bridge on foot for about 15 minutes if you don't stop too long at any statues along your journey!

Prague Castle

Prague Castle is the official residence of the president of the Czech Republic and serves as a major tourist attraction. It's also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as one of Europe's most beautiful places to visit.

The castle was founded in 870 and has been rebuilt many times since then--most recently after being destroyed by Swedish forces during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). Today, it features lavish interiors filled with paintings by European masters like Raphael and Canaletto; an extensive collection of historical artifacts; gardens filled with statues depicting famous figures such as Charles IV; fountains that represent each province within Bohemia (now part of modern-day Czech Republic); multiple courtyards with fountains; an astronomical clock that keeps time based on sunsets during summer solstice (when daylight hours are longest); an underground passageway leading from one part of Prague Castle grounds into another.

Prague National Theatre

The Prague National Theatre is the oldest theatre in the Czech Republic. It was built in 1881, but it has been rebuilt many times over its long history. Its rich and varied past can be seen in every detail of this beautiful building, from its magnificent architecture to its intricate interior decorations.

The Prague National Theatre is a popular tourist attraction because it's an excellent example of 19th century architecture and decoration; it also hosts many performances by some of today's most famous actors and singers--and if you're lucky enough to go see one while visiting Prague!

Wenceslas Square

Wenceslas Square is a public square in the New Town of Prague, Czech Republic. It is named after Saint Wenceslaus I, Duke of Bohemia, who is depicted on a monument at its center. The square is bordered by Karlovo namesti (Charles Square) to the west and Novemberske namesti (November 9th Street) to the east; across these streets are buildings belonging to Charles University.

The Prague National Museum displays archaeological findings from all parts of Czechoslovakia as well as historical exhibits relating to Prague itself; it also contains an extensive collection documenting Czech history since 1945 through paintings and photographs.

Prague Astronomical Clock

The Prague Astronomical Clock is one of the most famous sights in Prague. It's a huge clock installed on the Old Town Hall, which was built in 1410. The clock has a moving mechanism that shows the position of the sun and moon, as well as other astronomical details such as leap years and full moons.

The clock also displays various sculptures representing saints, apostles and biblical figures every hour on its four sides--you can see Sts Cyril and Methodius bringing Christianity to Moravia (which today is part of Slovakia), or John Wycliffe translating Bible into English, among others!

Karlštejn

Karlštejn is a castle in the Czech Republic, located in the Hluboká nad Vltavou District of Central Bohemia. It is a national cultural monument of the Czech Republic, and was founded by King Charles IV in 1348.

The original Gothic castle was built on an ancient site by medieval aristocrats from nearby villages, who formed an alliance against Hussite troops led by Jan Žižka during the Hussite Wars (1419-1434). The castle was enlarged several times during its history; today it consists of three parts: Lower Castle or Outer Court ("Vnitrní zámek"), Middle Castle ("Strední zámek") and Upper Castle ("Horní zámek").

Dancing House

If you're looking for a unique building, look no further than the Dancing House. Designed by Frank Gehry and located in the Old Town Square, this iconic piece of architecture is one of Prague's most popular tourist attractions. It was designed to resemble the human body--the glass panels represent skin and the metal frame represents bones. The name comes from its design: when viewed from above (in plan view), it looks like someone dancing!
