Straight up, this is probably the weirdest and most wild city I have ever been to. Think a bachelor party prone dive bar mixed with The Sound of Music.
As a lover of absinthe and Franz Kafka, I knew that I would enjoy my time here, but the city took it to a completely different level.
The city distinctly contrasts during the day and night. The daytime is for history and culture. Surrounded by tourists of all ages, expect to visit attractions like the Charles Bridge (pictured), the Astronomical Clock, Prague Castle and St Vitus Cathedral. Restaurants and cafes breathe excitement, and public transport is abundant and easy to use.
Night time, there’s a bar or club on every corner in the central part of the city, probably promoting a drink deal or two (it’s not hard to find a drink by the bucket) and free entry for women. If you’ve heard about tourism in Prague, you’ll probably know that it is renowned for its nightlife. As a female solo traveller, I do recommend that you stay in a group for the night as lot of shady people hang around on the streets.
Karlovy Lazne is a five storey nightclub that is highly popular with tourists, and even has an ice bar. You have to pay for entry, but one drink is included in the price.
The Irish Times bar is where my friends and I spent the majority of the night (and morning to be honest). Drinks were affordable and the live music felt like I was at home.
If you’re still out by sunrise, head to the Charles Bridge for some seriously good morning views.
