Václav Havel is Prague’s main airport. The best way to reach the city centre is using the Airport Express bus service - the station is 100 metres from the main exit of the airport. You can buy tickets from the driver for 60 CZK one way. The Airport Express has 4 stops around the centre of Prague. If you're in a hurry there's a taxi rank just outside the airport entrance, but check with prices before getting in - taking you to the city centre shouldn't cost more than 500 CZK.

The metro can get you to all corners of the city, and runs from 05:00 to around midnight. The city isn't big so there are only 3 lines (green, yellow, red). Stations have a red sign combining an 'M' with an arrow - get a ticket inside then validate it at the machine in the entrance. There are lots of different tickets (60 minutes, 90 minutes, 1 day, 3 days) but the most usual is for 90 minutes which costs 32 CZK. These tickets can also be used on buses and trams.

The tram network is a very popular form of transport in Prague and allows for a spot of sightseeing as it even runs in the historic centre. The tickets are exactly the same as for the metro and the bus, and can be bought either at a metro station or in any newsagent / tobacconist shop. Once you're on board, just stick the ticket into one of the yellow boxes to validate it.

Taxis are almost everywhere in Prague, especially in the city centre. The easiest and usually the cheapest way is to order a taxi at the hotel reception. The most known are the yellow AAA Taxis. Watch out for drivers trying to charge tourists more than the usual rate. To avoid this it's always better to order a taxi on the phone. In these cases they'll ask you where you're heading and give you an estimated price in advance.

Prague is a busy place and traffic restrictions in the centre make driving stressful. Be prepared for tricky one-way streets and not much available parking in the centre. Parking meters mark out the few areas where parking is possible. One thing to note is that parking in Prague 1 and 2 is reserved for resident only. A quick guide: blue line - only for residents (you'll risk being clamped!), yellow line - no parking, red line - no stopping at all.

The bus network mainly covers the surroundings and outskirts of Prague, leaving the city centre to the trams and metro. Bus tickets can be bought at any metro station / newsagent / tobacconist shop and used across all forms of public transport. Hop on and validate your ticket in one of the mounted yellow boxes.

Find a bike near you using the map in the mobile app. Once you choose a bike, it will be marked on the map along with a countdown of how long it will take you to get there. Your ride is time-measured by the app. A bike is rented for 1 hour by default. You can rent it for longer, too, but you will be charged extra depending on your scheme. There's a pink area in our app, called the zone. Please return the bike within the zone so other riders can easily find it. We have also put hundreds of racks on the map for your convenience.

According to the Guinness book of records, Prague is the proud owner of the largest castle in the world. Dating back to the 9th century, the castle spans 18 acres with numerous courtyards and subsidiary buildings including St Vitus Cathedral and the St. George’s Basilica.[4]

After John Lennon’s murder in 1980 an image was painted on the wall opposite the French Embassy in Mala Strana. Despite repeated coats of whitewash, the wall has become covered in John Lennon-inspired graffiti and lyrics from Beatles songs. The site is seen as a memorial to John Lennon but also as a symbol of free speech and non-violent rebellion.

Babies crawling up the TV Tower.

Thank Prague’s resident rebel sculptor, David Černy, for modern art with a sense of humor decorating the city. You can get a close-up of the babies with bar code faces on the castle side of the Vltava River, near the Kampa Modern Art Museum. For more of Černy’s twisted work, try the statues of two men pissing outside the Kafka Museum, or the upside-down horse inside Lucerna Palace near Wenceslas Square.[5]
