heva Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Just wondering whether any of you folks have visited Prague?? I'm going for a weeks holiday there in April, and was wondering whether anyone had any recomendations of cool places to go or quality things to see??? I hear they sell jagermeister very cheaply, so I'm sure whatever I do I'll have a good time. But I prefer to get advice from people who have been rather than a guidebook. Any suggestions welcome, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krelmatrix Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Prague - my favorite city in Europe. I'm actually going there in one week. Cool places to visit - during the day, check out the Prague castle. Most of it is sort of boring, but be sure to go up the big church tower. It's a helluva climb, but the view is worth it. There is a huge lookout tower also on the west side of the city (I forget the name, but you will see it - it's fucking huge) that I also highly recommend, especially if you are afraid of heights. If you are into the more morbid side of life, there is a church about one hour outside of Prague that is made out of human bones. I don't know the name, but it's quite famous. Nightlife in Prague is good, but nothing special. If you are into psytrance parties, there is one website you need to know: www.psytrance.cz (it's in czech, but you can figure out where the party listings are) They will list all of the parties in Prague. When either of you figure out more closely the dates that you will be there, send me a PM and I'll get you in contact with a friend of mine there (DJ TV from Oxygen Records) who can get you sorted on any events. There is a little underground club (literally underground) called the Cross Club that has psytrance every Wednesday. I believe that is run by Schwa & Slater from Tribal Vision Records. Really great night - I played there last June and the crowd has wonderful energy. If you are more into the clubby thing, the big club there is the Roxy (www.roxy.cz) - one of the best clubs I've been to. I know that DJ TV has done psytrance events there, and I believe Slater & Schwa sometimes do free Monday night events there. There is a regular (monthly?) Saturday night event there called Zen that caters to more of the progressive house sound - they book DJs like Nick Warren, Anthony Pappa, etc. Pretty good night the one time when I was there. Anyways, fucking cool city - have a blast, and feel free to PM me with any specific questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cymoon Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 not much to say to krelms posts nice place to go for breaks/dnb/jungle is punto azul in kroftova street and the second tower could be Petrin tower (old iron) or Zizkov tower (new white)... definitely climb up some of them, it is so nice view from these points... you can walk from petrin tower to prague castle through a big park with amazing views on prague, the best are from the monastery garden between petrin and prague castle...

krelmatrix Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 do you mean this one? Yup - that's the place. We tried to go there during our trip a few weeks ago, but you know how it goes when you are travelling with several other people. We'll probably check it out in the summer sometime.

heva Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 OKi doki well I had a wicked time in Prague, it's a beautiful city!! I mostly wandered round the city, drank lots and chilled in cafes. I went to see the church of bones as well in Kutna Hora, crazyness. And I went to the cross club last wednesday....what a wicked little place that is Had a cool night, got hideously drunk on jagermeister and after leaving at 3am I got very lost trying to get home.....I was convinced I knew where I was going, a few trams later and a nice tour of the suburbs of prague I got home at 5.30 am hehehe. I blame the jagermeister. I'll post some pics up soon. Thanks for all the recomendations people, they really helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
