Drakkaria Pagan Shop consists of Celtic, Slavic and Viking Medieval Swords, shields, armoury, knives, jewelries, goblets, ceramics, figurines, books and etc etc. It is located 52, Rašínovo nábř. 386, Nové Město, 128 00 Praha, Czechia on the corner of Trojická. 2 blocks south of Palacky Bridge. Only 5 minute walk south of the Dancing House and 12-13 minute walk south of the Old Town Square.

One of the most beautiful cities in Europe with great history, culture & architecture. European backyard city where I enjoy returning time & time again.

Walk the Charles Bridge from the 14th Century (started in 1357 & finished 1402), it's the bridge that connects the Old Town (Staré Mesto) to the Lesser Town (Malá Strana). Explore the other bridges to cross from east to west, too. It literally takes less than 2 minutes to cross, unless you still think you are in a dreamland, but that's ok, you're in Prague!

Go visit the Prague Castle before tourists flock there, best time to arrive is 6:00AM-9:00AM or after 5:00PM (17:00), Prague Castle is from the 9th Century, which seated Bohemian kings, Roman Emperors, presidents of Czechoslovakia & presidents of Czech Republic. Vaclav Havel was the last Czechoslovakian president & the first Czech Republic president Prague Castle is the largest lived-in ancient castle in the world according to the Guinness Record. Both Prague Castle & Charles Bridge are on the UNESCO World Heritage sites.

A small tip, Golden Lane will be free after 5PM Golden Lane built in 16th Century to house the guards but in 17th Century, it housed Goldsmiths. Charming street within the castle wall.

Go to Old Town, figure out how the Astronomical Clock (Prague Orloj) works & what each characters represent. Orloj is from the 1410, third oldest clock in the world & oldest surviving clock in the world. Take a picture with Tyn Church in the background. Have a seat near Jan Hus (John Huss) & his followers statue. A theologian and a philosopher who along with his followers were burnt alive because he was a church reformer. He is considered pre-Protestant & was known 100 years before Martin Luther. Visit the St. Nicholas church in the Old Town, Orthodox church. There is another St. Nicholas in Lesser Town and is Gothic Parish One was built by a father & the other was by his son of Dientzenhofer family. Both are Baroque in style. BTW...there are 3 St. Nichiolas.

If you are overwhelmed by the mass tourists have a drink, a dessert & people/boat/geese watch at the Vltava River waterfront (Náplavka). There are boat floating restaurants, street cafes & pub stands along the waterfront.

On each visits, I began to explore further outwards from the comfort zones of Old Town, New Town, Castle District. Don't get me wrong, those are some great historical & beautiful areas but one can not help being curious of other neighborhoods. So, join in & explore the local neighborhoods of Vyšehrad, Vinohrady, Smichov/Anděl.

On 1st visit in '13 , I stayed in Smichov/Andel (southwest of Old Town, across the Vltava River). Back then it was slightly sketchy/grey area. In '19 visit this neighborhood boomed with high level real estate, very upper-middle class area. Visit the local theaters, enjoy the relax of Petrin Park (Petřínské sady), ride a tram, ride a funicular (Angled tram, 3 stops of Újezd, Nebozízek and Petřín).

Another local area called Anděl, felt like local working class neighborhood. So many restaurants, pubs, cafes & a huge mall. Many trams stop along the Nádražní Street.

One 2nd visit, I decided to stay in another local neighborhood called Vinohrady (southeast of Old Town). In the 14h Century this neighborhood was covered with vineyards. During the visit, this area was an upcoming trendy neighborhood with full local pubs, restaurants and cafes popping out near the Peace Square (Náměstí Míru). There is a Subway/Metro stop, literally next to the church & there are plenty of tram lines that stop at the Square. Easter, this is where the locals gather to sell & buy treats, drinks, food & souvenirs for wandering tourists.

Keep the Adventure and Curiosity Alive!
