Why we expect this today
- Germany school holidays
How to avoid the worst of it today
- Josefov Morning The cemetery's tilted stones and the Pinkas memorial's walls of names.
- Vysehrad Golden hour Ramparts, Slavin's graves and the river bending below.
Where the crowds are
- The Royal Route — bridge to square: One medieval corridor carries nearly the whole visitor city.
- The castle's security gates: The hill's metering point, slowest mid-morning.
- The clock corner on the hour: The strike show's ten-deep semicircle.
Quiet places in Prague
- Kampa & the Wallenstein garden: Island lawns and baroque peacocks beside the crush.
- Vysehrad: The other castle, and almost always empty.
