Tomás Musil Park

Named for one of Prague’s greatest magical architects Tomás Musil Park has some beautiful sculptures and pieces of artwork that are reflective of the grand buildings around Prague that Musil helped to create. There is a water feature in the middle of the park, that to muggles looks like nothing out of the ordinary, but if a magical person looks at it long enough they will see the characters in the artwork come to life. The Mermaids will flick their tails, and the birds will fly from place to place under the water as it flows from the top of the sculpture. There are areas for families to gather, and many places to sit and enjoy the sun during a mid day break from the workplace… Benches and tables line the pathways, and there are usually street entertainers milling about to play music, tell stories, and if you pay close enough attention maybe you’ll even see a little magic.

Located in the perfect spot, guests at Bellevue can enjoy dinner with a nice view on Vltava and the Charles Bridge. Serving traditional Czech dishes, paired with international flair. This place is not for those with shallow wallets. There is nothing cheap about this place, but every bit of it is worth it. There is not a type of alcohol in Prague that Bellevue does not serve, and if you know how to ask, you can see the magical menu… And believe us… It’s worth it.

The National Theatre in Prague is known as the alma mater of Czech opera, and as the national monument of Czech history and art. The National Theatre belongs to the most important Czech cultural institutions, with a rich artistic tradition, which helped to preserve and develop the most important features of the nation–the Czech language and a sense for a Czech musical and dramatic way of thinking. Today the National Theatre consists of three artistic ensembles: opera, ballet and drama.

Prague Orloj

The Prague Orloj is a medieval astronomical clock located in the Old Town Square in Prague. The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest one still operating. The Orloj is mounted on the southern wall of Old Town Hall in the Old Town Square. The clock mechanism itself has three main components: the astronomical dial, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details; "The Walk of the Apostles", a clockwork hourly show of figures of the Twelve Apostles and other moving sculptures—notably a figure of Death (represented by a skeleton) striking the time; and a calendar dial with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good operation is placed in jeopardy; a ghost, mounted on the clock, was supposed to nod its head in confirmation. According to the legend, the only hope was represented by a boy born on New Year's night.
