  3. Charles Bridge

    attraction

    Karlův most, 110 00 Praha 1, Czechia

    At around 4 PM, watch the lamplighter ceremony where historic gas lamps are lit by hand. It's a magical moment but gets busy, so arrive 20 minutes early. Also recommended to visit early in the morning before 8 AM for a peaceful and quiet experience.

  4. Old Town Square

    activity

    Staroměstské nám., 110 00 Josefov, Czechia

    The main Christmas market, stunning festive vibe, but gets packed and is expensive. Go for the atmosphere, not a full dinner. Try Trdelník, a chimney cake rolled over a hot grill, coated in sugar and cinnamon, crispy outside, soft inside. Classic is preferred over ice cream filled.

    restaurant

    Hotel U Prince Prague by BHG, Staroměstské nám. 29, 110 00 Staré Město, Czechia
