The East of Prague is on the east side of the Vltava River beside the Old Town and New Town districts. It consists of the numbered districts of Praha 3, Praha 10, Praha 11 and Praha 12. Most of the sites listed are in the Cadastral district of Žižkov, which roughly corresponds to Praha 3.

Map
The middle of the district East bank of Vltava

Like many districts of the city, Prague 3 is socioeconomically diverse. The lower part of Žižkov around Husitská street is known for its high concentration of pawn shops and cheap bars, while the upper part near Jiřího z Poděbrad metro boasts many cafés and flashier apartments. Historically, Žižkov was a rough, working-class neighborhood, filled with factories, brothels and gambling bars. Often compared to the Paris neighborhood of Montmartre, Žižkov today is an economically diverse neighborhood filled with Czech families, foreigners and working artists. Žižkov is said to have more bars per capita than any other neighborhood in the world.

Praha 10 is an old district in Prague.

Get in[edit]

Žižkov[edit]

Prague 3 is served by the metro line A, which stops at Jiřího z Poděbrad, Flora, and Želivského. However, the heart of Žižkov (the oldest part of the neighborhood with most hotels and restaurants) is served by trams 5, 9, 15 and 26, with stops at Viktoria Žižkov, Lipanská and Olšanské náměstí. Other areas of Žižkov are served by trams 1, 10, 11 and 16.

Vinohrady[edit]

Stops Náměstí míru  A  or Jiřího z Poděbrad  A  and trams 4, 10, 11, 16 and 22.

Karlín[edit]

Stops Florenc  B  C  and Křižíkova  B  and Invalidovna  B . Trams 3, 8 and 24.

Vršovice[edit]

Trams 4, 6, 7, 22, 24. No metro connection, but you can go to Náměstí míru  A  and then use tram 4 or 22.

Troja[edit]

The fastest way to get to Troja and Prague Zoo is to take the metro to Nádraží Holešovice  C  (you can also get there on several tram or bus lines) and from there continue on bus 112 or the dedicated free ZOO bus (on weekends in high season) to the station Zoo Praha. This station is just between the zoo and castle, to get to the botanical garden, follow the marked way uphill (5–10 minutes). Alternatively, from May to October, you can take a steamboat from the city center (Rašínovo nábřeží). If you happen to be in the peninsula area of Praha 7, especially around Stromovka Park or Výstaviště, it can be a nice walk or a bike ride.

North[edit]

Northern areas of Prague are accessible via Palmovka  B  (Praha 8, southern part of Libeň district), or via Nádraží Holešovice  C  (Praha 7, Holešovice district), Kobylisy  C  or Ládví  C  (Praha 8, Ďáblice district - near the northernmost part of Prague).
