Explore Prague
Experience Prague
Prague offers a rare combination of historic elegance, green hillsides and riverside walks, and vibrant city life. With its walkable centre, welcoming atmosphere and rich cultural heritage, the city invites conference participants to explore, relax and connect beyond the scientific programme. Whether before the morning sessions or after a full day of discussions, Prague provides an inspiring setting for both discovery and downtime.
Old Town Square & the Astronomical Clock
For centuries, the Old Town Square has been the historic heart of Prague. It is home to the Old Town Hall and its medieval Astronomical Clock, which draws crowds every hour. From the square, narrow lanes, hidden courtyards and pedestrian streets lead to cafés, restaurants and shops.
Charles Bridge & the Vltava
Dating from the 14th century, the Charles Bridge links the Old Town with the Lesser Town across the Vltava river. Lined with statues and best enjoyed early in the morning or at sunset, it offers some of the finest views in the city. The riverbanks are ideal for a quiet walk, or you can see Prague from the water on a river cruise.
Prague Castle & Hradčany
Overlooking the city from its hilltop, Prague Castle is one of the largest castle complexes in the world. Within its walls you will find St. Vitus Cathedral, historic palaces and gardens, and sweeping views over the red rooftops of the city. It is an ideal destination for a half-day visit.
Petřín Hill
Rising above the Lesser Town, Petřín Hill offers parkland, orchards and winding paths in the middle of the city. At the top, the Petřín Lookout Tower, inspired by the Eiffel Tower, rewards the climb with panoramic views. It is a peaceful escape between sessions.
