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.

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.
