Prague

If you only have 36 hours in Prague, you won’t be able to see everything the city has to offer. But if you plan your trip right, you can see a lot of the highlights while you are in town.

Most people start their visit by going to Old Town Square, Wenceslas Square, the Charles Bridge, and Prague Castle. They are the main sightseeing highlights of the city, and are not to be missed.

If you have more time after that, other great things to do in Prague include visiting the Jewish Museum, walking around the pretty Mala Strana neighborhood and into Letna Park, going into to St. Nicholas Church or Tyn Church, and visiting Vysehrad.

If you still have time left, you can go to the Museum of Communism or the Mucha Museum, visit the Prague Zoo, or take a river cruise along the Vltava River. And don’t forget to stop by one of the city’s famous cafes if you need a rest.

In the evenings, you can enjoy dinner at some of the best restaurants in Prague, explore the city’s varied nightlife scene, and drink some of the famous Czech beers.

And no 36 hours in Prague would be complete without music. The city is known for being the home of the famous Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, and concerts of all kinds abound in venues throughout Prague. You can also enjoy an evening at the national theater or at one of the many jazz clubs.
