Charles Bridge (Prague) Reviews

Charles Bridge is a 500 year old bridge in Prague. It's 500 metres long, and contains 30 Baroque statues along it. It spans across the Vlatva river and has a tower at either end. It is free to cross. This is an amazing thing. This bridge is 500 metres long, but it takes around one hour to cross! The reason is that there is so much going ...  Read the complete review

We headed on to the Bridge expecting just a ...  Read the complete review

If you are staying in the town you need to cross the bridge to get to Prague Castle and it is a prime tourist spot as this is most people'splan when they visit ...  Read the complete review

Charles Bridge is probably one of Pragues most recognised landmarks. For many years, Charles Bridge was the only way to cross the River Vltava that flows through the middle of the City. Nowadays there are many bridges connecting Old Town Prague and the New Town but there is still something very special about the Charles Bridge that makes it stand ...  Read the complete review
