Breakfast at the hotel

Perched high above the city, Prague Castle is a sprawling storybook fortress that brings Czech history to life. With its oaring spires, hidden courtyards, and centuries-old legends, it feels like stepping into a fairy tale. Wander through St. Vitus Cathedral, explore royal halls, and stroll down the charming Golden Lane—every corner reveals a new layer of mystery and majesty. It’s not just a castle—it’s the heart and soul of Prague. Built in the 11th century, Strahov Abbey is one of the largest monasteries in Bohemia and the highlight is the magnificent library.
Mala Strana, or the "Lesser Town," is one of Prague’s most charming and picturesque neighborhoods, nestled between the Vltava River and Prague Castle. With its cobbled streets, Baroque palaces, hidden gardens, and cozy cafés, it feels like a step back in time. Wander beneath lantern-lit arcades, discover tucked-away churches, and soak in the old-world atmosphere.
