5. Prague Astronomical Clock

If you pay a visit to the City Hall right in the heart of the Old Town and look up high on the southern wall, you’ll see one of the oldest astronomical clocks still working anywhere in the world. Known as the Pražský Orloj, the Astronomical Clock dates back all the way to 1410. Since then it has understandably had to be repaired time and again and has been saved from destruction so well that to this day it still tells the time and becomes animated with a fascinating show at its top of every hour.

6. Dancing House

Prague is a city famous across the world for its picturesque and historic cityscape, rather than for its garish modern architecture. Therefore, you will easily appreciate why the city’s Dancing House (Tančící Dům) was met with so much controversy when it was built in the mid-1990s. A curved B-shaped glass building, it stands in stark contrast to the surrounding buildings and is visited eagerly by modern architecture buffs as well as regular visitors who like to eat at its popular restaurant.
