The bohemian allure and fairytale features of Prague make it a perfect destination for beach-weary vacationers who want to immerse themselves in culture. You could devote an entire day to exploring Prazsky hrad (Prague Castle), then refueling over a hearty dinner at a classic Czech tavern. Spend some time wandering the Old Town Square before heading over to gape at The Old Town Hall and Astronomical Clock. Prague’s best bars are found in cellars, where historic pubs set the scene for a night of traditional tippling.

A Baroque-style shrine housing liturgical treasures including the famous star-shaped "Sun of Prague," which is studded with 6,222 diamonds. Place of pilgrimage, Loreto Treasure, baroque carillon, 3D model of newly discovered Crypt with special macabre fresco paintings.
The Loreta church bells are ringing. But they are not just ringing, they are playing a song. The Marian song. So lovely, that I wait around for it. The performance goes on every hour ( 9am - 6pm ). The famous chime of the bells is part of my childhood memories.. Miraculously, they chimed even during the communist era, when I Iived in Prague. The small bells are located in the tall clock tower and are original. 27 of them are connected to the clock. It works the same way today, as when it was first created. The 6,222 diamond monstrance on display is called Prague Sun. It is sure to dazzle. There are many other valuable artworks to be seen. I enjoy the peace and quiet , the tranquility of the serene courtyard. Taking a tram to Pohorelec is an easy way to Loretanske Namesti . Walking down the hill from there is also an easy way getting to the Castle. We were staying in Hotel Savoy , close by to the church, for the first part of our stay in Prague. That made it very easy to spend more time in the Castle area that week. Our month long visit in Prague was pre - Covid. Prague was still full of tourists. I am very sorry to read, that the church is experiencing hard times now. After all those years. It is heartbreaking ! I hope and pray that the current situation gets better soon. Hoping, my husband and I will be able to return, once again .... Growing up on Mala Strana, Sunday's visits here with my Dad, are still remembered fondly. Very special part of Prague , indeed .... Till next time, Dekuji a Nashledanou....

Climb the steps here and you will arrive at a lookout point with a charming view of Vltava. You will appreciate the beauty of the city from a different angle, compared with the scene at the castle.
