Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Ghasemi - If you are traveling to Europe, you may have the opportunity to spend a weekend in Prague .. What to see and do if you only have two days to tour the Czech capital?

First day

You may want to start with the Old Town Square, but it is best to start with a visit to Prague Castle and its gardens, which allow you free entry. It will take you between an hour and an hour and a half, but if you want to take an organized tour with explanations of the guide, you will need more than 3 hours.

Exit the castle through the main gate at the top of the hill so you can see the museums, palaces and the whole city from the ideal place to get to know Prague, just as the Czech kings did in the past.

It only takes a few minutes to walk from the castle district to Mala Strana or the Little Quarter, which is a lively and beautiful area full of hotels, restaurants and embassies, but you won't find many major sights there.

Then head to Charles Bridge , which is more than just a bridge, as it is a symbol of Prague and a major attraction in it, as it teems with tourists, artists, musicians, and souvenir sellers from morning until sunset. Stop there to enjoy the statues along the bridge, and for a beautiful view of the Vltava River and take some pictures. .

On the other side of the bridge, you can climb to the top of Petrin Hill, for a view of the surrounding area and Prague. A visit to Charles Bridge usually takes 20 to 30 minutes, and if you add a visit to the Tower, it may take you up to another half hour.

Then you can head towards Wenceslas Square , which is one of the most famous sights in the New Town and the most distinctive square in Prague, and there you can have lunch, as it is lined with hotels, shops, restaurants and cafes.

At the end of the square looms the National Museum if you wish to visit it, and you can also easily reach the small and famous Mucha Museum, then to the Town Hall which you can reach by following Lindrisska Street until you reach the Jindrisska Tower which is the tallest bell in Prague, located in Snovazna Square.

The Town Hall is the largest concert hall in the city and a true treasure trove of modern artworks by Alphonse Mucha and other famous Czech artists. The time required to stop for lunch at Wenceslas Square, walk around to the Town Hall and stop at the Mucha Museum and the Windmill Tower will be between 3 to 4 hours.

You are now in the old city of Prague, which can take you another day to visit easily and without feeling in this beautiful atmosphere, so it is better to choose a nice place to dine in one of the many restaurants there and go to rest before starting a new day.

Second day in Prague

This day should be dedicated to the sights of the old town, if you spend some time in the old town on the evening of the first day you will surely know the value of the beauty that you will accept today.

The tour begins in the Old Town Square, which includes a number of important sights such as the beautiful Gothic-style Church of Our Lady before Týn, St. Nicholas Church and the Old Town Hall where you will see people gather to wait for the astronomical clock to strike.

The Old Town Square and the Astronomical Clock take an hour to discover, you can take a horse carriage ride there, discover treasures in the souvenir shops along Karlova Street and enjoy high-end shopping along Parisca Street.
