One of the symbols of the city is Karlův Most, so you would not find an excursion program that does not include at least taking a quick glance at it. The place is mostly chosen by creative personalities such as artists and musicians. It connects Mala Strana with the Old Town and was built in the middle of the 14th century. Several episodes of the movie “Mission Impossible” were filmed here, while some episodes were shot in other tourist attractions of the Czech capital. It is definitely worth visiting Petřínská rozhledna – an interesting structure hidden in Petřínské skalky, which in turn, is a perfect spot for a leisurely walk. Surely the towers offer wonderful views which will amaze any tourist, and the view of the hometown of Franz Kafka provokes even more mysterious feelings (although this is difficult to imagine).
An unusual attraction can be found behind the cemetery Starý židovský hřbitov na Žižkově. We are here referring to the Žižkovská televizní věž. The fact is that the tower is decorated with an unusual sculptural composition – crawling Miminika (and each such “baby” weighs 700 kg). The sculpture was created by David Cerny. Inside the tower, there is a bar and a restaurant, and observation platforms from which you can view the cemetery flooded with vegetation, which inspires some peace in the soul. Another unusual structure is Tančící dům, built by the famous architect Frank Gehry along with Vlado Milunic.
