[→]WELCOME TO PRAGUE!

Welcome to Prague! Whether you‘ve just landed with plane, arrived by train, bus or car, we have very important information about how to get to the city centre using all possible types of transport, without wasting more money than it’s necessary.

↓1. PRAGUE BY PLANE

The airport is located on the northwest edge of Prague, about 20 kilometres (12 miles) from the centre of the metropolis. Your money can be changed in the currency exchange offices or kiosks situated in the airport. Important phone numbers include +420 220 111 888 (General info line - nonstop operation) and +420 220 115 005 (Lost and Found service).

↓ HOW TO GET TO THE CITY CENTER

If you‘ve just arrived at the airport, getting to the centre will take about twenty to thirty minutes depending on traffic (if you use a taxi or shuttle service you will find necessary information below). If you choose cheaper but less convenient public transport you have to expect fifty minutes on the road.

↓...BY PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

The bus is the cheapest way to get to the city centre. The disadvantage may be that you need to buy a bus ticket paid in Czech crowns or with credit card. To get the cash, you can use ATMs in the arrival halls of the airport. Or you can buy the actual ticket directly in a kiosk or at the information counter in both arrival halls (open from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.). Furthermore, in the vending machines, located next to the bus stop, or directly from the bus driver (it will cost you a few crowns more). The ticket price is 32 CZK for a transfer ticket, with which you can freely switch among bus, tram and subway for 90 minutes. On the shorter distance and duration of 30 minutes you can use the ticket for 24 CZK (with this ticket, however, it is not allowed to switch among the types of transport). If you have more luggages, you will pay 16 Czech crowns extra.

BUS # 119

This is the most likely choice for most people because the BUS # 119 provides the fastest connec -

Visit Museu M Ka M pa

Museum Kampa is a museum of modern art, located in the historical center of Prague. The core collection consists of the art collection of Jan and Meda Mládek, who actively supported Czechoslovak non-conformist artists during their stay in exile in the second half of the 20th century. The permanent exhibition of the Museum is dedicated to the paintings and drawings of František Kupka, one of the pioneers of abstract art at the beginning of the 20th century, and the sculptures of the cubist sculptor Otto Gutfreund.

Museum Kampa also organizes many short–term exhibitions. Identity – the story of Czech graphic design will begin on October 12. The exhibition will show the best historic works in which aesthetic quality, good technical realisation, craftsmanship and functionality go hand in hand – iconic posters, exquisitely designed books and magazines, dozens of logotypes, the development of state symbols and navigation systems, as well as exceptional examples of graphic design from the era of audiovisual media.

TRAVELLING AT NIGHT

-port with stop at Divoká Šárka. Afterwards take the TRAM # 51 which will go to the city centre. Night BUS # 510 runs every 30 minutes.

International trains stop at the central train station - Prague Main Railway Station. The station is directly connected to the subway station (line C), and is just a few steps away from the city centre, from Wenceslas Square.

3. ARRIVAL BY BUS

Florenc is the central bus station. Located in the heart of the city and directly adjacent to the subway station Florenc (it is a transfer station between subway lines B and C). As well as the main train station, Florenc underwent a costly renovation and now boasts with very pleasant and clean halls for arrival and departure, kiosks and fast food restaurants (Burger King, etc.). And most importantly, there are a large digital boards showing departure / arrivals times of buses and associated boarding platform.

4. ARRIVAL BY CAR

Prague, like most European cities, suffers from very heavy traffic and lack of freely available parking spaces (the street with blue coloured areas are reserved for residents and you risk stripping off your car when you park there). That is why we recommend the use so-called P + R (Park and Ride) parking lot, located close to all major highways. More info on www.dpp.cz/en/parking.

5. SUBWAY

For over 1000 years, Prague has served as the political, cultural and economic centre of the Czech state. Having been the seat of two Holy Roman Emperors during the gothic and renaissance periods, it also had the status of the Holy Roman Empire capital. Prague’s history commenced in the year 870, although evidence shows the area had been inhabited since the Stone Age. The city flourished during the 14th century, under the reign of King Charles IV, who, among other deeds, ordered the building of the famous Charles Bridge or Saint Vitus Cathedral, the oldest gothic cathedral in central Europe, and Charles University, the oldest university in central Europe. Prague was then the third-largest city in Europe. Now home to some 1.2 million inhabitants, Prague became the capital of the newly set up Czechoslovakia in 1918, with the end of WW I and the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In 1992, Prague’s historic center became a UNESCO world heritage site, and is currently one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations.

PRAŠNÁ BRÁNA

PRAGUE 1, NÁMĚSTÍ REPUBLIKY 5

The Powder Gate (Prašná brána) is a late-Gothic structure and one of the most important monuments of medieval Prague. It was here that the Royal Route began and where one of the main roads from Kutná Hora, where silver was mined into the royal treasury, led. The Powder Gate was built in place of the older Gate tower, related to the fortification of the Old Town of Prague from the time of Václav II‘s reign. The older tower was known as the Mountain Gate.The Powder Gate was designed largely as a representative symbol as well as a customs collection point. Its construction began in 1475. From about 1715 it served as a firepowder warehouse, hence the name ‚‘Powder‘‘. During the Prussia siege of Prague in 1757, the tower was considerably destroyed. Today‘s appearance was not acquired by the tower until 18781886 for a fresh look treatment, led by architect Josef Mocker. The draft was the Old Town Bridge Tower.

CHRÁM MATKY BOŽÍ PŘED TÝNEM

1,

Mother of God Church Before Thine (Kostel Matky Boží v před Týnem) is located in the Old Town of Prague, close to Old Town Square. Its construction ran from the mind-14th century to the first decades of the 16th century.

It is among Prague´s most artistically important churches, architecturaland its surviving internal mobilizer. Its western front, applying towards the square, is one of Prague‘s most famous dominants.

STAROMĚSTSKÝ ORLOJ

1,

The Old Town Square of the Old Town Orloj (Staroměstský orloj) are medieval astronomical clocks located on the south side of the Old Town Hall tower in Prague.

The first written reference to Orloj dates back to 1410.The clock is made up of several parts - apart from an astronomical and calendar plate, it is fitted with the mechanism of twelve apostles, who appear in two small windows every entire hour (9.00 - 11p.m.). In a parade of apostles, another mannequin on the sides of the clock comes alive in mechanical motion - the reaper ringing, turning the hourglass, indicating to thestanding Turk that his time is up.

He‘s shaking his head away. Vanity and Lakomec behave similarly. The sought-after Orloj is part of the historic centre of Prague,belonging to the UNESCO list of cultural monuments.

CHARLES BRIDGE

Karlův most, Prague 1

The Czech Republic’s capital is full of amazing sights of great value. But Charles Bridge definitely belongs among the TOP 5 most amazing ones. Not only is this medieval building one of the most famous bridges in the world, but it is also inseparably connected to the most glamorous era of Prague and – last but not least – it just might be the most beautiful bridge in Europe. And we are not exaggerating at all. Charles Bridge is 516 meters long, 9.5 meters wide, 13 meters high, and stands on 15 pillars. It’s also the part of the so-called Royal Route.

JEWISH MUSEUM

The Jewish Museum owns rich collections of silver, textiles and has one of the most extensive Jewish artefacts in the world. It contains 40 000 artefacts and 100 000 books. It is unique not only for the number of the artefacts, but above all for the fact that they were collected in a single integral territory, i.e. Bohemia and Moravia.

Many people do not have any idea hat almost in the centre of Prague there is a small town with its own poetry and identity. The Nový Svět area is a kind of a small district in the immediate vicinity of the Prague Castle, full of picturesque corners and harmony. Actually, it was a suburb of the Castle Area (Hradčany) that was founded in the mid-14th century along an old road heading the village of Střešovice. In 1360, it became a part of Hradčany by decision of the emperor Charles IV. It was integrated to the designed city fortification system. The origin of this part of Hradčany is not exactly known, but it was probably a forecourt of the Prague Castle positioned on a gradually filled ravine and the Brusnice stream valley.

The Vrtba Garden is one of the Baroque gardens that complete the beauty of Petřín. It consists of terraces at three height levels that are connected by wide staircases. The garden has an area of 0.31 hectares and the highest point is 212 m above sea level. It is one of the most beautiful gardens of this kind north of the Alps.

JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX

Get ready for the return of one of the most iconic villains of all time in the highly anticipated sequel Joker: Folie à Deux! Joaquin Phoenix once again excels as Arthur Fleck, whose transformation into the Joker captivated both audiences and critics. This time, he is joined by Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn, promising a new, fascinating perspective on the dark world of Gotham.

Todd Phillips and his team are once again set to prove to the world that the Joker is not just about superficial crime and anarchy, but a deep psychological study and an intense personal drama. This time, we are taken on an even darker journey, where the central theme is shared madness – folie à deux. This French term refers to a shared psychotic disorder, and in the context of the film, it will capture the destructive relationship between the Joker and Harley Quinn.

From the Joker sequel, we can expect a deeper dive into the psyche of the main characters. Phillips and his team have made a bold choice by opting for a musical format, promising an intense and emotional experience. A dark Gotham, where music and song tell a story full of madness and passion, is sure to be a captivating spectacle. Lady Gaga, known for her powerful voice and acting talent, will undoubtedly bring a new and authentic

approach to the role of Harley Quinn, ensuring an unforgettable performance.

As for Phoenix, there’s no need for doubt. He showcased his unique qualities in the first film.

The main question remains whether the magic of the first movie can be repeated. After all, the original somewhat mirrored the legendary Taxi Driver by Martin Scorsese, so it‘s not a bad thing that the sequel will take a different (albeit unexpectedly musical) direction. The original Joker captivated audiences primarily with its overall atmosphere and the gradual escalation of the main character‘s madness. Theoretically, that element can‘t surprise us anymore, but that‘s where Gaga as Quinn comes in. At the very least, the trailers promised that she has embraced the role with grace. R-rated comic book films are doing well these days, so let‘s hope this will be the case here too. After the fantastic first film, the anticipation is rightfully enormous.

DAVID ČERNÝ: STÁLÁ EXPOZICE VYBRANÝCH DĚL

The permanent exhibition at the Musoleum Gallery features some of the most famous works by David Černý. The space, covering 1,200 square meters and spread over five floors, is filled with the latest pieces, but it also takes visitors back to the beginnings of the artist‘s work. Among the artworks, visitors will find installations that the public has never seen before, as well as displayed designs and architectural projects.

David Černý: He was born and raised in former Czechoslovakia and „knows better than anyone else what oppression means.” With the fall of the Iron Curtain, there was a radical transformation in his hometown—Prague, where he still lives. Černý himself says that he „is not a political animal,“ yet his artworks, unvarnished and confrontational, have everything to do with the truth of the times. According to him, his older works are „more relevant than ever and clearly show that while time changes, the human brain does not.”

Černý, according to many, masters „the art of balancing between controversy and humor like no one else.“ He first gained fame in 1991 when he painted a Soviet tank pink in his native Prague as a war memorial. Since then, his „acts of artistic civil disobedience,“ installations, and

exhibitions have continued to provoke reactions around the world.

This year, Černý sparked discussion with two butterfly sculptures placed on the facade of the Máj department store on Prague‘s Národní Street. Their bodies mimic a Spitfire fighter plane. The sculptures were installed by climbers a week ago. Prague‘s heritage officials have permitted the placement of the sculptures on Máj for one year. Shortly after the installation of the sculptures, some experts criticized them. The Club for Old Prague stated that the design shows signs of typical kitsch, and its overtly appealing motif aims to fascinate while also evoking emotional memories of Czecho- slovak aviators. Černý rejects this criticism.

SHOPPING SPREE

Seven out of ten European online customers buy goods in e-shops outside their home country, 57 percent even outside Europe. The reason is mainly better prices, wider offer or cheaper transport. Increasingly, they also make decisions based on how they can return goods if they do not like or fit the size.

Of course, this does not mean that customers give up on domestic production. After all, with that, all the shops could clos e. But the foundation is clear - you need to be assertive and be able to offer something unique to your customers that they can‘t buy elsewhere.

PALLADIUM SHOPPING MALL

- SIGHTSEEING AND SHOPPING IN THE VERY HEART OF PRAGUE

As for Palladium, you might think that shopping centers can‘t surprise you. However, Palladium, located right in the center of Prague just a few hundred meters from the Old Town Square, is an exception in this regard. Thanks to its history and the sensitive integration of historic buildings with modern architecture, Palladium creates a unique atmosphere that has made it an attractive destination for visitors both local and international, turning shopping into a true experience. The popularity of Palladium was confirmed by an expert jury, awarding it the prestigious Superbrands 2023 and Superbrands 2024 titles for the best brands of the year.

The history of the site where Palladium now stands dates back to the 12th century, during the Romanesque period, when the first stone buildings were constructed here. The site holds significant importance in the history of the Czech Republic. During his service in the army, Josef Kajetán Tyl composed the Czech national anthem here in 1834. Recently, visitors are drawn to the new entrance solution from Náměstí Republiky, where a striking design element has revitalized the space—a light installation created by the North Bohemian company Preciosa. This installation consists of more than 500 glass tubes, welcoming customers with a unique light show. The second light installation,

located at the entrance from the metro, features an impressive 700 crystal tubes.

However, Palladium primarily represents the largest shopping center in the heart of Prague, offering nearly 200 shops, services, restaurants, and cafés, as well as first-class offices for renowned companies. Among the stores, you can find established brands like Marks & Spencer, H&M, C&A, Sportisimo, Datart, and Albert supermarket, as well as flagship locations for brands like Under Armour and Apple Premium Partner. Customers can also choose from smaller shops offering clothing, accessories, jewelry, electronics, games, household items, sweets, and more. The second floor of the center, presented under the name Tasty Garden, is dedicated to gastronomy. Shoppers can select from classic restaurants (Indian, Thai, Lebanese, Chinese, Czech) to authentic Neapolitan pizzerias, as well as fast food options and specialties like fre-

shly made waffles, trdelník, donut boxes, and fruit juices and ice creams.

Customers can enhance their autumn and winter wardrobes at the modernized stores of brands like C&A or Reserved, as well as in new shops that have recently opened in Palladium, such as Converse, Medicine, Columbia, Kara, and Urban Brands.

Every year, Palladium prepares an interesting program and special offers for its customers. In October, shoppers can look forward to the Festival of Health and Beauty. Starting in November, a magical Christmas atmosphere will await all visitors. During November and December, customers can brighten the eyes of 300 sick children through the charity project Tree of Joy, which Palladium has supported for the tenth year.

AN OLD BOHEMIAN EXPERIENCE

Bring it to the table, let the Truth be revealed! Take a trip back to a time when portions were fairer, ducks meatier, and beer more drinkable. With today’s tip, you will visit the unique and historic U Pravdů restaurant, where beer has been on tap since 1888.

You can visit this Czech delicacy while strolling through Prague. Just choose the silver tourist trail, whose signs are stamped in the curbs and will reliably lead you to Žitná Street. As an attraction beyond the tourist guide, you can take a photo at the house where the world-famous composer Antonín Dvořák lived, as this house is also in Žitná Street directly opposite the U Pravdů restaurant.

The total capacity of the restaurant is 68 seats and it is divided into 3 parts. Main hall, bar and lounge, with a capacity of 42, 8 and 18 guests. On rainy summer days the garden in the courtyard of the house is open with a capacity of about 50 seats.

The history of the U Pravdů restaurant dates back to 1888, when Mr. František Pravda asked for permission to build a gazebo in which he would brew beer according to the law of the brewery. References to the house in which the restaurant is located date back to the 14th century, when the house was successively called U Lajblů, U Chlupů, U Tikánů or Kalivodský. During the Renaissance, it was beautifully decorated, and its

brewery façade with a gable attic was an ornament of Žitná Street.

In the U Pravdů restaurant you will agree with those who enjoy that beautiful time of stylish lamps, carved chairs, old bicycles, black and white photos and traditional Czech cuisine, which was best served by the mothers of Czech grandmothers. The current interior, which has been used since the turn of the millennium, is similar to the original look of the time. Most of the restaurant’s accessories are original or historical. The restaurant serves Pilsner, Polička, semi-dark Ferdinand and unfiltered Unětice. The interior will delight lovers of the First Republic, in whose style it is decorated. Lots of small details and details will make a proper feast a real experience for all senses.

And what delicacies does this Old Bohemian restaurant offer, among others? Delicious roast pork ribs, roast duck, rabbit on spinach and bacon, pork, dumplings, very, goulash or meat skewer. That is just a modest list of what you will be licking your lips for at the U Pravdů restaurant. And believe me, this is no tourist trap. Even the biggest Czech patriots will be thrilled to try the local cuisine.

And we have to mention the helpful service that will advise you. After all, Czech cuisine is quite specific, so do not be afraid to have anything recommended. Personally, we would bet that whatever you choose, you will not regret it, but you cannot give anything for asking.

So, if you intend to visit an honest old Bohemian restaurant while wandering around Prague, you will not go wrong at the U Pravdů restaurant. Whether we are talking about food, drink or the overall concept, everything here is exactly as it should be. The place is in a great location, you will feel the atmosphere of a traditional Czech restaurant in the best possible sense of the word and you will be delighted by its offer. This is what a proper cultural and gastronomic experience should look like.

At the beginning of March, Manifesto came up with a call to support the opening of a restaurant by a Ukrainian chef, chef, businessman or businesswoman. Twelve interesting and talented applicants applied, and among them Anna Temnenko came through with her concept, for whom the opening of a restaurant called Colour in Manifesto means the realization of her and her family‘s dream. In the restaurant Barva, we regularly see not only Anna, but also her mother and younger sister. The other places were filled by women she found on Telegram and Facebook. In her menu she prepares traditional and family recipes from different regions of Ukraine.

HARLEY‘S BAR

A place where nothing is forbidden and where even the biggest lambs become nocturnal animals. If Mirek Dušín were to enter this establishment, he would become a rock star. You want to experience a really wild party that you cannot get home from until dawn? Harley’s Bar will not disappoint.

Welcome to one of the most exciting clubs in Prague. And this is no newcomer. Harley’s Bar in Dlouhá Street is now a legend, and its patrons cannot get enough of it. They have good reason to keep coming back. Actually, they have several reasons.

Reason number one: You love rock and independence. Both of which are reflected in the atmosphere of the place in the best possible way. If you have a problem with one or the other, move on

down the block. This place would make you feel like Alice in Wonderland after you have ingested the sponges.

The second reason: the drink menu is really great. The cocktails are the backbone of the place and it is no problem to agree with the bartender on almost anything if he has on hand. A bonus is the excellent prices for a similar location.

And the third reason? Absolutely luxurious location! Harley’s Bar is just a few steps away from the Old Town Square. In practice, this means that it does not matter what time your excursion to this “Hell on Earth” (pun intended) ends. You will always be close to the various modes of public transport and the swarm of taxi drivers that regularly circle the club until the morning.

You will have an assault on your senses during the evening. And not only with great music and other visitors (there’s a lot to see), but also thanks to the bartenders who do not like to bore their customers and therefore regularly organize spectacular fire shows. And it does not stop there. If the ladies take a liking to the bartender, he might just put Jack in your mouth from a bottle right on the bar. And do not worry, gentlemen, it is not just for the fairer sex. Harley’s has its fair share of feisty female bartenders.

So, what do you mean by Harley’s Bar? Well, it is a place where no one is bored, where you will easily kick back one drink after another, where you can dance on the table on weekends and weekdays, and where the bartenders party with you. It is a club that brings out a whole other side of people. It is a place to party or have a birthday party. Why? Because they will be as wild as the place itself – the bartenders will chain you up, tie you to the wall, pour ice in your pants, spray you with whipped cream, in short, they will prove to you that they enjoy their work and you will have fun with them.

So, if you prefer a rock blast to pop pomade and you are sick of all those glitzy venues with shamrocks in tight pants and girls looking like plastic mannequins, head to Harley’s Bar, which will offer you the atmosphere of a proper American rock venue. The attentive service, with the added bonus of a midnight fire show, special drinks, music all night that will get everyone rocking, and an atmosphere you will not forget. Just a party that will get you in the mood for the next day.
