Michelin Streetwise: Prague Streetwise Map

With the STREETWISE (R) Prague Map in hand, make your way from Golden Lane, a row of tiny homes and workshops dating back to the 16th century past Valdstejnska zahrada (the Wallenstein Gardens), baroque gardens tucked behind the high walls of the Wallenstein Palace; and across Charles Bridge built in 1357 and lined with the statues of saints. There are the five other historic districts of Prague: Hradcany, home to the Loreta Church and the Loreta Treasure, sacred objects from the 16th-18th centuries; Mala Strana, the Lesser Town or Small Quarter; Stare Mesto, the old gothic quarter of Old Town; Nove Mesto or New Town; Josefov, the former Jewish ghetto dating back to the 13th century; and Vysehrad, an area of landscaped gardens and castle ruins said to be the seat of Czech Princes in the 11th century. The whole maze of streets connecting the first five districts is best explored on foot.

A Prague Metro map, included in our STREETWISE (R) Prague Map shows the way to Vysehrad. An evening in Prague is a buffet of lively offerings. Whether you are into tasting a frosty Pilsner beer in a back street cafe, seeing an opera at the Estates Theatre, where Mozart premiered Don Giovanni in 1787 or relaxing with a classic music concert played in one of the many Baroque churches, Prague will tempt you to remain awake long into the night. The index of hotels, palaces, churches, restaurants, metro and more on our STREETWISE (R) Prague Map will insure you are well taken care of while visiting the city.
