Overview
When you talk about Prague, you usually talk about the old town because the idea is that all the history of the city is hidden there. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The new city is almost as old and was actually built only 100 years later. There is, therefore, just as much to see in the new city, if not even more than in the old city. The tour starts at the St. Ludmilla Church, the most important and special church in Prague after St. Vitus Cathedral.
The tour then continues towards Wenceslas Square to admire the special National Museum and, of course, to get to know the whole background and history of Saint Wenceslas. During the tour, we also passed some works of art by the most famous and infamous Czech artist, David Cerny. To end the tour, we dive into Operation Anthropoid, one of the most important operations in Czech history.
The attack on SS commander Reinhard Heydrich was, in any case, the most important event in the Czech Republic during the Second World War. Since we were in the area, we ended the tour at the dancing house. Tired from the tour? No problem because you are at Naplavka, the nicest terraces on the quay of the Vltava River.
