Hradcany district is an obvious place for tourists to visit as it holds so many attractions of the most significance. The most obvious is the Castle and the St.Vitus Cathedral. The St. George Basilica and the Strahov Library . The many Palaces and the beautiful gardens surrounding them. The Golden Lane. The area around the Castle is crowded and there are security lines for different attractions. I love the easily accessible Loreta Church without the crowds and the surrounding area, closer to Pohorelec. And the Rocking Horse toy store selling hand made Czech toys, nearby. This year my husband and I stayed for the first time in the Hradcany district Hotel Savoy. During the first part of our trip. That afforded us the opportunity to hang around the Hradcany area at all hours and found it most enjoyable at night when most of the tourists crowds were gone. We had discovered some new restaurants, that we enjoyed for lunch and dinner here. The views at night are spectacular. My husband and I once again visited the Lobkowitz Palace, midday concert there, as well as short break on their terrace. Changing of the Guard ceremony on another day. Walk down the Novy Svet and stop at restaurant U Raka was an afternoon well spent. The views from the Bellavista restaurant are one of the best. I love this part of Prague and hope you will too ....

Its the Castle district which sits atop a hill overlooking Prague central. It has one of the largest castles in the world along with a host of smaller palaces and a few churches. There is a large amount of hotels / restaurants / bars and a lot of touristy stuff to see and do. You can walk up to it from the Lesser town up Nerudova st (one of the streets that will get you there) or you can catch a tram / bus up there also. When you are in Prague, its definitely an area to check out.

Castle District 's one of the most beautiful areas of Prague. This district has numerous marvellous buildings, palaces and cathedrals. It is a pleasure to walk from the Old town and reach this district taking the Charles Bridge. I visited Prague during the summer and I have fantastic memories. Prague is simply beautiful.
