    A touristic hole with many pubs & cafés. Not a square but a boulevard, this is where Alexander Dubček and Vaclav Havel declared independence from Russia. It also grounds the monument of King Wencelas

    The modern downtown of Prague is all around this square. From WW1 ending celebrations, to uprising against nazis and communists happened here.

    A great place to hang out, however and what kept me going there on a daily basis, were the food carts, specially for a hangover, they are super cheap. Oh, metro lines get here so it's an easy stop

    Great architecture and a lot of history if you know what you're looking for. Watch out for people walking on the wrong side of the street though, pedestrian traffic is always weaving here

    Definitely a place to visit and take pictures of only once during your trip! Loads of shops but it isn’t a place to eat! Too touristy!

    Beautiful place! One end has the museum & the other is the start of old town & shopping strip, so very crowded w/ tourists & shoppers. Very different scene at night but still safe to walk around

    This very long boulevard serves as connection between the new town and the old town. A little chaotic, but you can't miss a look the many cafés, commercial passages and restaurants along both sides.

    Don't exchange money in Wenceslas Square, they are all thieves. There's one exception, the exchange point near Sephora with the blue color, not western union !! They speak Arabic also

    Have some klobasa (sausage) in a kiosk, don't ever get to the McDonald's, the best fast food is on the street, these are really delicious.

    Aside from being a great venue for shopping and dining, this square has also served as venues to many historical events. The National Museum and the Prague State Opera are also very near.

    Rows of shops, hotels (note the Art Nouveau glory of Hotel Europa) and nightclubs flank the pavements, and by night it can get a bit sleasy. Read more

    Not much historical, but more commercial square. National Museum and statute of St. Wenceslas dominates on the upper side of square. Many shops are on left and right sides. Two Mcdonald's and one KFC.
