About the Malá Strana Area
Romantic baroque elegance
Malá Strana is Prague’s Baroque masterpiece. You'll find it clinging to the hills below Prague Castle. It survived centuries to remain a tangle of cobblestones and secret gardens. A massive fire in the 16th century cleared the way for rich nobles. They built the pastel palaces you see now. The district sits on the west bank of the Vltava. Charles Bridge links it to the chaotic Old Town. Even with the tourist crowds, Malá Strana stays quiet at night. It sits right under the castle and next to Petřín Hill. Pick this neighborhood if you want old-world romance without the noise. It works for couples and history fans. Walk a block away from the main road. You'll find a different city.
