What happens if you only have 48 hours in Prague? The city is filled with so much history, but a whistle-stop tour could be the perfect chance to take in the majority of the sights before it’s time to leave. Just remember to breathe!

Lennon Wall

This wall was once covered in Beatles lyrics after the passing of John Lennon. Although a group of artists painted it white and wrote Wall Is Over in 2014, it has since been brought back to life to show the diversity of the city once more.

Charles Bridge

It took decades to complete Charles Bridge, but it has stood the test of time as construction finished in the 15th century. 200 years later, baroque statues were added to celebrate various saints of the time, which have now been replaced with replicas.

Prague Castle

This World Heritage Site has been standing since 880 CE and is the largest coherent castle complex on the planet. Be sure to keep an eye out for all the gargoyles among the talented architecture of the building.

Astronomical Clock

The Old Town Square is filled with incredible sights and sounds, with the Astronomical Clock being just one. It’s chimed for more than 600 years, and many gather every hour to see it at work.

Church Of Our Lady Before Tyn

Believe it or not, but this church has been standing since the 14th century. It’s filled with history and dominates a vast portion of the Old Town Square, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations.

Prague is an incredible city that has been at the center of history for hundreds of years. You might only have 48 hours in Prague, but with so much to see and do, it might not be long before you’re planning a return visit.
