Undoubtedly living Christmas in Prague is something unique and worth to experience. To the Christmas charm already given off by the Central European cities, where this time of the year is lived unsurpassed and every corner is covered by the authentic Christmas spirit, we must add the own Prague charm: a city which is decorated and filled with lights and colors when this lovely time of the year arrives.

A simple and elegant Christmas

Prague escapes from a kirsch Christmas: Christmas in Prague shows the contrast of the elegance of its stone and dark brick buildings and the lights and ornaments perfectly measured in order not to be excessive. Although Prague does not need any decoration, these ornaments are the perfect complement to make the city even more beautiful. We can breathe the romance is everywhere.

An example of some of these places are in the Castle District (Hradčany), where in the cathedral square, the beauty of this building is not overshadowed, but enhanced by an elegant large Christmas tree without excesses, sober, simple and which perfectly encompasses with the Gothic nerves of the façade of the cathedral.

The place where elves live

But we don’t have to escape from the topic 100% or to follow a planned script. If we allow ourselves to let us be driven by the most classic Christmas, we can know Prague thanks to the charming and highly recommended visit to the many Christmas markets.

Once lured into the holiday spirit, visiting the Golden Lane transports us to a magical place, especially if you travel with children, where the stone walls are decorated in the best way and give he impression we live in a film with a combination of snow, red tiles and wooden doors painted in bright colors.

Live the Christmas Spirit in Prague

A party that covers everything

Christmas spread throughout the world, and it is something special for everybody: visitors, residents etc. The traders know it and do not hesitate to pull out their best clothes and to decorate their stores carefully.

If in Parizska Street we found a lush decoration in the huge department stores, we can find the antithesis in Karlova street: absolutely festooned but with the charm of the small businesses. Every store, every museum and every restaurant are perfectly decorated with some Christmas classic pieces.

The heart of Christmas in just five minutes

But we can escape from this idyllic experience emulating a Christmas card: the most authentic and deceitful Christmas in Prague may be left apart. Just ten minutes from Boho Hotel, where this beautiful and particular environment is spread, we can find the Old Town Square (Staroměstské náměstí).

The one on the Old Town Square is the best scenario to have a unique Czech Christmas: its great Christmas market and its majestic Christmas tree. The square also give the visitor a chance to have a unique perspective of the pack of lights and red awnings that flood the whole city from a bird’s eye view at the top of the astronomical clock tower.

Don’t hesitate to spice up the idyllic walk with mulled wine and with a trdlelnik: a kind of donut typical of Czech Christmas which is filled with jam or chocolate. An absolute delight.

The tandem BoHo-Prague at Christmas is a cocktail of sensations where the enjoyment comes together with comfort and the pleasure of living a Christmas dream. After walking through the crowded places in the Old Town Square, there is nothing like arriving to the hotel, an oasis of peace just ten minutes by walk.
