Ideal destination for a city break, Prague is as much appreciated for its diversified architecture as for its lively nightlife.
Prague, one of the must-see capitals in Europe
Immerse yourself in the unique world of the Czech capital less than 2 hours from Lyon.
Fly to the ramparts of Prague Castle, photograph the astronomical clock of the City Hall and climb to the Belvedere of Petrin Hill, before a cultural tour of the old town and a cruise on the Vltava River.
It's also important to take breaks between visits! Enjoy the many bars and restaurants for a small fee, theaters and opera houses, or the trendy clubs for the more courageous.

5 reasons to go to Prague

Visit a truly unique museum
The fruit of a uniquely rich culture, Prague is known for the number and diversity of its museums. As well as its more traditional museums, there are a number of very interesting, amusing and incongruous gems, such as the KGB Museum, the Museum of Medieval Torture and the Sex Machines Museum!

Stroll through the streets of Prague's Historic Quarter
Bewitching and romantic, the Czech capital is hands down one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Don't be too hasty to venture off the beaten track. Start by exploring Prague's historic quarter, which offers a true insight into the city's elegant architectural heritage. No trip would be complete without a visit to the central square, the Karolinum and Charles Bridge.

Visiter un musée pas comme les autres
Fruit d’une richesse culturelle hors du commun, Prague se distingue par le nombre et la diversité de ses musées. Parmi ceux-ci, aux côtés de grands classiques, quelques pépites intéressantes, voire amusantes ou incongrues, du musée du KGB à celui de la torture médiévale, en passant par le Sex Machines Museum…

Ready for an icy experience?
Looking for refreshment in a city that knows how to party? Try the Ice Pub bar, a club made entirely of ice located near Charles Bridge, in Karlovy Lazne. We recommend the vodka served at -7°C in frozen glasses with a winter shawl around your shoulders and your hands in warm mittens. Brrr!

Attend a black-light theatre show
A genre of theatre created in Czechoslovakia in the 1950s, "black-light theatre" is a surrealist show which, as the name suggests, is experienced and watched in total darkness. Many theatres in Prague offer this original and magical experience. Recommendation: Royal Road Theatre, also near Charles Bridge.
