About the Hradčany Area
Regal, historic, and panoramic
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.
