Hradčany

You'll find Hradčany perched above the city. It's the ancient royal heart of Prague. Founded in the 14th century to serve the massive 9th-century castle, the area feels heavy with history. Walk past grand baroque palaces on quiet cobblestone streets. It’s a living museum. But it also serves as the Czech presidency headquarters. Look down from the hilltop over the west bank of the Vltava. You get a 180-degree sweep of red-tiled roofs and spires. Tourist crowds vanish by evening. This makes it a silent, romantic retreat. Go here if you want boutique hotels and fine dining. Skip it if you need late-night clubs.
