A FEW NOTES BEFORE YOU GO
A royal route.
A little more curiosity.
This is our version of Prague’s coronation walk: an architectural prologue at Kotva, a detour to the Estates Theatre, and the classic climb to the Castle. Allow roughly 3–4 hours for an unhurried walk with outdoor stops; museum visits, meals and interiors take extra time.
Expect cobbles and an uphill finish. The map is a schematic guide, not turn-by-turn navigation. Illustrations are artistic interpretations, not a record of current conditions. Check venue websites for access and opening times.
