Attractions
Astronomical Clock (Orloj)
Attraction
The Astronomical Clock (Orloj) on Prague's Old Town Hall is a medieval mechanical marvel and the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world, dating to 1410. On each hour from 9am to 11pm, the clock comes alive as Death rings a bell, windows open to reveal the Apostles, a rooster crows, and figures of vanity, greed, and lust shake their heads. The clock face displays the current time, the positions of the sun and moon, astronomical cycles, and the time of sunrise and sunset — all simultaneously.

Charles Bridge
Attraction
Charles Bridge (second reference) is Prague's defining landmark, a medieval stone bridge adorned with 30 Baroque statues of saints that has spanned the Vltava River since 1357. The bridge was the only connection between the Old Town and Prague Castle for centuries, serving as a commercial and spiritual artery. At dawn and dusk, when the crowds thin and the statues are silhouetted against the sky, the bridge captures a medieval grandeur that makes Prague one of Europe's most romantic cities.
