Oktay on the RocksSeptember 1, 2013This is my favorite place in Prague, especially the cemetary near the basilica. The park itself and the view of the river are also great. Bring something to eat and have a picnic.- Otel.comFebruary 9, 2012This beautiful and historic castle on a hill over the Vltava River is a must-see for all Prague visitors. This is home to the Vyšehrad Cemetery and the neo-Gothic Basilica of St Peter and St Paul.
- Ayush AggarwalMay 24, 2016Best park in Prague for jogging, picnic, date. Concerts and church at same place. you can have a great view of the Prague beautiful structure from top of it
Luca P.July 30, 2013Best park in Prague, amazing view of the city. Don't miss a visit to the basilica, the Casemate and in the beautiful cemetery look for the tombs of Dvořák, Smetana and many other czech personalities.
Denis RaslovNovember 11, 2016The must visit place in Prague. Church and great park for walking and taking pictures of awesome views of the city.
JuliaJuly 26, 2017One of the best view of Prague is here. Great building of neogothic basilica, old cemetery and park. Entrance ticket into basilica costs 50 czk per person, only cash accepted here.
MatthiasSeptember 16, 2015This is a beautiful basilica surrounded by a nice park and with a great scenic view. It's a bit away from central park but worth a visit! 😊- Separate ancient fortress in Praha 2, with an amazing view on the old town Prague and Vltava river, with a gothic cathedral and an old cemetery
- Vuk MilanovicSeptember 17, 2015The best place to take a walk and get some great views of Prague. Pretty much tourist free and the old cemetery is definitely something to explore!
What I can say - you have to see it all - view, cathedral, parks,... On of the most beautiful places in Prague. Good for runner early morning 😉
Alina Maatjes-SiletskayaFebruary 17, 2013Views from the walls of Vysehrad are absolutely stunning. In winter make snowmen on the wall - seems like it's a local unannounced competition.
SaidJuly 3, 2015Nice place. What else can l say. Church, cemetary, view. Good for walking, jogging, reading, having a beer or wine. Some people even kiss there.
Florina FilipDecember 20, 2016This part of the city is truly worth visiting. The complex includes the cemetery and saint Paul and Peter Church, a stunning piece of art!- Martin SvasekJanuary 21, 2014Away from the crowded Old Town & Prague Castle areas and yet amazing place with huge importance for the history of Prague. Recommended walking tour for the other day.
Juanvi JativaOctober 24, 2014A bit off the beaten track, but a very nice park, castle and views, and a must visit if you spend several days in Prague
Great views all around. Fewer tourists make it this far down the river. Great authentic places to eat or get coffee all around below.
Love this place! Centric, good wibe and perfect for half hour walk. Perfect for event.
Peaceful place with great views! Not so crowded....yet! :)
Rusty ShacklefordMarch 4, 2016My favorite place in the city. It's quiet and peaceful. Beautiful views of the city.
AEROLUCIFERJuly 22, 2012Go there to see nice city view, river Vltava,history,Slavin cemetary with interesting artists, actors,etc.,which they ain't among us anymore. And draught "kofola" soda.
Liza AlypovaSeptember 13, 2017Love relaxing here. A very calm place, where you can read books, meditate or enjoy a pleasant walk
Nasnl .July 30, 2013The - from the outside mediocre - Neo-gothic church is a delight of painted walls and gold on the inside. Find the frivolous Maria Magdalene painting on a pillar!
Keksz NETMay 23, 2013A must-see, another historical part of Praha, a 2 hour walk with a good beer garden at the end (if you start walking left after entering the yard of the "castle")...
Hop Hey LalaleyJanuary 6, 2016Nice place to have a walk if you are really tired from touristic Prague.
