Being in Prague in the white winter is among the most beautiful experience ever, since the city is so marvelous with its white dress. Imagine the Wenceslas Square, the new town center or the long lovely boulevards in the Czech capital covered with fresh white snow. The winters in Prague, however, could be quite cold as sometimes the temperatures go below minus 15 degrees C, but even so, the view and the experience is definitely worth the efforts. To enjoy that beautiful city in its glamour, a good idea would be to put on winter shoes and a warm winter jacket when you go out your Prague apartment. Another thing to mention now, is that during the winter it gets dark after 4 in the afternoon, so better do the sightseeing before that (even if Prague in Christmas lights is very and absolutely beautiful), and then head to one of the warm pubs where you can try some heated red wine or a few pints of beer.
The tourist attractions are all working, including the museums, even if they work with reduced opening hours. Thus, travellers have plenty to do in Prague, even in the winter. We should mention also the Christmas markets and all the New Year decorations that make the city very lively, waiting for the holidays that are coming. Actually, the winter season provides some unique opportunities for the tourists to see a different Prague. There are many cultural events going on at that time, including art exhibitions, theatrical performances, and concerts. The winter sports are also popular in Prague and one could go on a skating ring or in a hockey tournament. The activities for children are many as well. There is a Bethlehem scene with the animals, there is also a wooden cabin where children can participate in some activities, make Christmas decorations, masks or see a puppet theatre.
Prague in winter offers many opportunities for sightseeing and shopping as well. The seasonal decorations at that time of the year make the experience even better. There are many good deals at that time and many bargain prices. Besides that, one could also try some special Czech foods. It should be mentioned that the public transport in Prague works excellent during the cold days and despite the weather conditions and this includes the buses, the trams and the subway.
In case you think that you will be alone enjoying the sites of Prague in winter, you are absolutely wrong. Many tourists decide to visit Prague for the New Year Fest and it is actually quite busy at that time of the year. Thus, some early planning should be considered, especially when it comes to the accommodation. You will see thousands of tourists, of all ages and nationalities, all dressed up, and all in search of presents or just enjoying the decorations on the Christmas market or celebrating the New Year’s Eve along the bank of Vltava River.
