🏰 Prague: A City of Fairytales, Cobblestones & Timeless Charm 🇨🇿✨

#summerbudgettrip 📍Prague, Czech Republic Prague is the kind of place that feels like a storybook come to life—Gothic spires, pastel facades, and winding streets that seem to glow at every hour. Whether you’re into history, food, or just aimless wandering, the city delivers. 🏙️ Wandering the Old Town We started in Old Town Square, with its iconic Astronomical Clock, horse carriages, and bustling cafes. Every building feels like a painting, and every street leads somewhere worth exploring. We climbed the Old Town Hall Tower for postcard-perfect views across the rooftops and spires. 🌉 Charles Bridge at Golden Hour The Charles Bridge might be touristy, but it’s magical—especially at sunrise or golden hour. Lined with Baroque statues and local artists, it connects the heart of the city with the Lesser Town and the Prague Castle above. 🏰 Exploring Prague Castle & Beyond A short uphill walk led us to Prague Castle—one of the largest in the world. We spent hours here, visiting St. Vitus Cathedral, strolling the Royal Gardens, and ducking into the tiny homes of Golden Lane. The views over the city below are breathtaking. 🍽️ Local Eats & Sweet Treats Prague surprised us with its food scene. We tried hearty Czech goulash, svíčková, and of course, the irresistible trdelník (chimney cake), best eaten warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Local beers are cheap, smooth, and everywhere. 🌅 Chill Evenings by the River We ended our days by the Vltava River, either at a riverside beer garden or watching the sunset from Letná Park. Prague’s beauty doesn’t end when the sun goes down—it just gets quieter, cozier, and even more romantic. ⸻ Quick Tips: 🎟️ Buy castle tickets online to save time 👟 Bring good shoes—cobblestones are charming but not sneaker-friendly 🌉 Go early or late to enjoy the Charles Bridge without the crowds #tripmoments #prague
