Vítkov: a peaceful hill where Czech history was made

Just a short walk from the center of Prague rises Vítkov Hill—a quiet, unassuming ridge that separates the districts of Žižkov and Karlín. Though technically part of Žižkov, it’s visible from much of the city and offers some of the best panoramic views of Prague. Still, it remains surprisingly uncrowded, a perfect candidate for those seeking a different kind of city experience.

Climbing up from the Žižkov side in late April or early May, you’re greeted by a lush park in full bloom.
