Afternoon One
See Vyšehrad late in the day, but only if the weather looks promising. Take the metro to the Vyšehrad stop at the Congress Centre, from which you have marvellous views of Prague’s spires. Walk west along Na Bučance and enter the fortifications through the Tábor Gate . Once inside the walls, you’ll find historic constructions, such as the Romanesque St Martin’s Rotunda (see Rotunda of St Martin), everywhere you turn. Enjoy the park at your leisure but get to the westernmost edge of the compound atop Vyšehrad’s rocky out-crop in time for a sunset.
Afternoon Two
Žižkov and Vinohrady are also best seen in the second half of the day. From Florenc metro, climb to the Monument of National Liberation for a wonderful view, then compare it to the one you get from the Žižkov TV Tower. Stroll as far into Vinohrady as your feet will permit you, but save your strength: you’ll need it for a night of pubbing and clubbing.
Afternoon Three
Energetic walkers can see Stromovka and Troja in a half-day. Take the tram to Výstavište among the trees of the former game park before crossing the Vltava to the Troja Château . From there, you’re within easy walking distance of the zoo. Take the bus back to the metro at Nádraží Holešovice.
