Prague is also known as the city of a hundred lights or the golden city. The streets of Prague take us on a scenario worthy of a fairy tale with magical spaces decorated with towers and a medieval atmosphere that will take you back in time. If you have chosen to visit Prague as a cultural destination the places that you should visit are listed below. For easier access it would be great if you could move around with a car. When I visited I thankfully was using travall. The National Museum is recognized as the leading museum in the Czech Republic. This museum boasts a neo Renaissance building from the beginning of construction in the late nineteenth century. In the museum’s galleries you will see permanent collections and exhibitions. Mineralogical and lithological Exhibitions, Paleontology, Zoology, Anthropology and Osteology. If traveling with children you can visit the section of Zoology which is complete and has interactive games.
The Museum of the City of Prague is the space where we can explore the history of the city from prehistoric times until the late seventeenth century. Excels in Langweil Model Museum are the most recreational with twenty square meters that show the distribution of streets, squares and buildings of Prague in the early nineteenth century. You should know that all these museums do not allow pets inside so it would be wise if you had some pet barriers in your car, if you’re traveling by car.
The Museum of Communism is an important museum because in its sections we learn more about the history of the communist era in the Czech Republic from its inception until its fall in the late twentieth century. The sections are known as the origins, the dream, the reality, the nightmare, the historical and the Velvet Revolution. While the Museum of Communism is small, it is ideal for history buffs.
The old Town Square is considered the center of public life in Prague, this square dates back to the medieval city and its surroundings you can visit the Church of St. Nicholas, Old Town Hall and the Church of Our Lady of Tyn. Finally there’s the Museum of W. A. Mozart. In this museum you will find not only personal items of the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart but also a gallery designed to expose his musical instruments and sheet music among others.
