Things to do in Charles Bridge
For centuries, the only way to cross the Vltava River was over Charles Bridge, Prague’s iconic 516-metre-long stone bridge. Charles Bridge is the oldest bridge remaining in Prague and the second oldest in the Czech Republic. The medieval bridge is a celebrated UNESCO World Heritage site connecting Prague Castle to the city’s Old Town. With millions of visitors per year, Charles Bridge is easily one of the top attractions in Prague.
Completed in 1402, Charles Bridge was built in a gothic style with 16 arches and three bridge towers flanking its ends. Lining the bridge, you’ll find Baroque statues of notable Catholic saints — 30 of them to be exact. Vehicles are not allowed to cross the bridge, so it’s not uncommon to feel like you’ve gone back to the 13th century while on the historic Charles Bridge.

Reviews Charles Bridge
“There was no commentary provided, we were not therefore fully informed on the various landmarks. Food was adequate. The trip only lasted 2 hours because we were kept in a queue each way at some sort of canal type lock which took up about 30 minutes.”
“very hard to get around on a 1st time visit. we expected better directions. taxi and uber expensive and this was a tour with no transport. for 1st time in prague do not book without transport. we did not go.in the end. next time book one with transport.”
“Well worth the money tour guide very knowledgeable great day out exploring”
