By Auburn Scallon One of the most common refrains in travel writing these days is to “live like a local”. If that’s the case, set your alarm for a full day of office work, followed by running errands and cooking dinner for your family. Sound like a dream vacation? But we get it. The phrase expresses more of an underlying desire – not to be treated like an outsider or expected to pay sky-high prices for pre-packaged experiences. What visitors need isn’t a taste of local life, but local advice. How do people get around the city easily and affordably? What tricks and scams do the residents know how to avoid? Which attractions will add value to your trip without requiring a wait in mile-long lines or massive crowds? We’ve rounded up some of our favorite local experts to share their valuable knowledge. Read on for timely tips from Prague City Tourism on accessible ways to explore the city beyond the most famous landmarks this summer. Then the social media stars of Honest Guide let you know how to avoid common scams and easy-to-make mistakes. So grab your Prague to-do list, double check it against this advice, and let us know if these words of wisdom made an impact on your trip. We always love hearing from our readers!

EXPERT:
Kateřina Pavlitová of Prague City Tourism Prague welcomes millions of tourists every year, and a big part of Kateřina Pavlitová’s job is to help them make the most of their visit. Here are a few of her tips to enjoy your summertime trip to the Czech capital.
7
Visit the Agricultural Museum. This newly remodeled building in Letná incudes multilingual, interactive exhibits (tractors! live animals!) that are great for families, plus a rooftop garden for a picnic with incredible views.
1
Use public transport, and don’t forget to STAMP YOUR TICKET to validate it when entering the metro, tram, or bus. Inspectors don’t take kindly to excuses or make any exceptions to this rule. On a lighter note, a Prague transport ticket also includes some fun rides, like the Petřín fernicular and ferries across the Vltava river.
2
Go to a farmer’s market. These aren’t limited to locals buying fresh fruit and vegetables – think more food-lovers markets with stands of readyto-eat snacks and meals. Try Náplavka on the Vltava riverbank or Heřmaňák in the Holešovice neighborhood on Saturday mornings.
4
Get out of the city center. This summer is a great time to discover the Karlín neighborhood. Grab a bite from the open-air food stalls at the new, no-cash-cards-only Manifesto Market, then walk a few streets over to experience Kasarna Karlín’s multi-functional arts space and outdoor cinema.
5
Wake up early and take a morning walk in one of Prague’s many peaceful parks. Kateřina suggests the southern section of Petřín park around the Kinsky gardens, near the Smíchov neighborhood, for a quiet stroll away from the crowds.
8
The Agriculture Museum garden isn’t the only high point in town. Kateřina recommends the many impressive views from above the city. Find your favorite panoramic perspective of Prague’s iconic red rooftops church and spires from the top of the Old Town Hall, the Charles Bridge Towers, or the Powder Tower.
9
Try some seasonal summer treats. Keep an eye on the menus at Czech restaurants for fruit dumplings (ovocné knedlíky) made with strawberries, apricots, and plums. Ice cream and gelato shops are popular across the city, or stop into a corner store and try a Miša popsicle filled with tvaroh, a soft white sort of cream cheese popular in Czech cuisine.
Mastering the Czech language is a tough task 10 Of course the local Pilsner is worth trying, 3 Discover the many buildings of Prague’s to6 expect from a visitor. Kateřina cautions that

using short forms like ahoj or čau instead of the formal dobrý den can actually be considered rude. She recommends modesty and manners over expecting praise for learning a few words, and sticking to polite, simple English.
but don’t stop there. Discover the expanding microbrew scene at places like Lod’ Pivovar or Beer Geek. To get a taste of the underappreciated local wine scene, trust the experts at Veltlin wine bar in Karlín or Vinograf’s multiple locations. JULY 2018 | THE PRAGUE VISITOR

EXPERTS:
Janek Rubeš and Honza Mikulka of the Honest Guide Honza and Janek’s popular YouTube channel, Honest Guide, is devoted to saving tourists from scams and tourist traps in Prague. They offer local advice on what to avoid in order to honestly enjoy their hometown.
1
Don’t exchange money at the airport or on the streets. This is a surefire way to get terrible rates, and scammers on the streets might even slip you some expired rubles instead of Czech crowns. Check out the Honest Guide video for recommended exchange places or just pay by card at most places around town.
2
These guys agree that public transport is the way to travel. Don’t hail a cab on the streets of Old Town unless you want to pay multiple times a normal rate. Prague’s affordable, reliable public transport system (or a nice walk) will take you anywhere you need to go.
3
While we’re on the subject, they’ve got another transport tip: Don’t try to board public transport before others have finished exiting. Wait for passengers to get off, then hop on with a clear path to keep things moving smoothly.
traditional Czech dessert. In Janek’s words, “Go ahead, buy it, but just know that you’re going to look like a tourist. It’s like wearing an I-heart-NY t-shirt in New York City.”
5
When you’re looking for souvenirs, stick to images that show the beauty of Prague, and please don’t buy Soviet-era memorabilia. Instead of these symbols of occupation, try gifts with a picture of St Wenceslas, the patron saint of the Czech Republic, or an image of the gorgeous city skyline.
6 These guys have one thing to say to the stag parties and pub crawls in Prague – don’t take your party into the streets. Find a club that’s made for your entertainment, but keep it quiet when you leave. Remember that people live in the center of Prague and you wouldn’t wanting someone shouting in front of your house at 3am.
7 Don’t come to Prague to do drugs. “This is 4 The Honest Guide guys are famous for their not Amsterdam,” Honza says, and despite any opinions on trdelník (a sweet, spiral of dough covered in sugar and spice) – just don‘t call it a
rumors you may have heard, drugs on the city
streets are illegal. Getting arrested is not how you want to spend your vacation.
8
The guys have a light-hearted tip for eating in a Czech pub: don’t eat dumplings with your hands. This staple of Czech cuisine may resemble a piece of bread, but it’s meant to be eaten with a knife and fork, making it easy to dip in the sauce of whatever you’re eating.
9
Don’t be afraid to explore or approach the locals. Honza recommends ducking into Prague’s many passages and doorways to find hidden beauty across the city. He also encourages tourists to ask for help, and is always happy to offer tips anytime he sees someone struggling to decipher a map.
10
These guys love sharing their opinions on Prague, but they also recognize that every traveler is different. Their overall advice is not to take any must-do or must-see rules too seriously – just be respectful, be yourself, and enjoy and all it the city has to offer. JULY 2018 | THE PRAGUE VISITOR

SOVA
We’re completely in love with SOVA. This charming and cozy restaurant is located in one of Prague’s most central suburbs, Vinohrady. Just a short walk from the national museum or Namesti Miru, this delightful restaurant offers Michelin quality food at prices anyone can afford. The friendly and helpful staff are always ready to make recommendations and meet customer needs. The team is lead by an award-winning, Russian chef who prepares delicious, modern cuisine with elements of traditional Czech favorites. Dishes range from smoked carp salad with real wood smoke, veal cheeks stewed in red wine with mashed potatoes and “brushwood” made from

This fusion of luxury and tradition is equally presented in the restaurants décor and atmosphere, with the crisp angles of the tables and rough surface of the exposed brick being softened by sumptuous fabric chairs so you can recline in style while enjoying your meal. If you’re looking for an excellent dining experience in either the day or the night, look no further than SOVA. It’s delicately balanced but perfected atmosphere means you can dress up or dress down and you’re sure to feel at home.

CLUB GUIDE Roxy
Dlouhá 33, Prague 1 www.roxy.cz The Roxy is one of Prague’s oldest and bestknown clubs. The venue was a popular theatre and ballroom in the 1920’s, but now you’ll find drum and bass, house, techno, and other modern styles on the dancefloor. When the club isn’t hosting a live DJ, it’s the spot for concerts and music festivals. Number 65 on the map.
Epic
Revoluční 1003/3 www.epicprague.com Newcomer to the club scene, Epic has made a name for itself as one of the hottest new clubs in the city. This modern electronic club has three levels that each leave you feeling like you are at an EDM concert. Truly a full audio-visual experience, the performances at the main stage alone make this spot one of the best choices for a night out. Number 64 on the map.
Lucerna
Vodičkova 36 www.musicbar.cz One of the largest and most popular music clubs in Prague, Lucerna is known for its weekly concerts and events. But it’s maybe most popular on Friday and Saturday nights, when the club’s huge projection screens come alive with 80’s and 90’s music videos. Partygoers of every age and all walks of life can be seen here, getting down to oldie hits from Blondie to Nirvana. Number 66 on the map.
Cross Club
Plynární 23, Prague 7 www.crossclub.cz Cross Club is a labyrinth of small bars and dancefloors pumping music from dubstep and
railroad tracks in Smíchov, Meet Factory transforms by night into a hip bar and music venue, where you’ll find local singers and international tours alike. Number 68 on the map.
M1 Lounge
Masná 1, Prague 1 www.m1lounge.com M1 Lounge is a favorite of locals, expats and even passing-through celebrities, and it’s not hard to see why. The club’s well-known team of skilled DJs keep the place pumping with a mixture of R&B, hip-hop, electro and dance music until the wee hours of morning, and the upscale, luxurious atmosphere makes every night feel like a celebration. Number 69 on the map.
James Dean
V kolkovně 922/1 www.jamesdean.cz/ Okay, we admit that this one’s kind of kitschy— but only in the best way. Named for the iconic rebel and actor, the bar has a classic 1950’s American diner feel turned nightclub late night. Number 70 on the map.
NEONE
Bubenská 1 www.lunchmeat.cz/ Neone got its start as a pop-up party, but it’s since grown into a well-established and respected club in Prague’s electronic music scene known for their superior sound system and live gigs. Electronic music fans, this is the spot where the latest trends in the industry meet innovative artists and dedicated fans. Number 72 on the map.
Radost FX
Bělehradská 120, Prague 2 www.radostfx.cz
but worth the trek. Number 67 on the map.
First opened in the early ‘90s just a few years after the Velvet Revolution, Radost FX is open Thursday to Saturday and offers the best of house, R&B and hip hop music—Rihanna even filmed one of her music videos there. Above the club is the venue’s restaurant and cafe, wellknown as one of the best brunch spots in all of Prague. Number 73 on the map.
Meet Factory
Retro
techno to reggae. The club’s psychedelic, industrial décor is a sight to see in itself—every piece of the building, from the walls to the ceiling, is constructed to move and pulsate with the music. It’s one of the most unique experiences you’ll have with nightlife in Praha, but you might want to grab an Uber. Cross Club is a bit out of the city’s center,

Café 80's V Kolkovně 909/6 You can't go wrong with 80's music. Whether you're nostaligic or just appreciative of all things "totally awesome", the two-story venue does features an 80's themed café restaurant on the first floor. But, the real story here is the

U Sudu is the best of both worlds with a wine bar upstairs and an underground, cave-like labyrinth downstairs. When you walk in, don’t stop on the top level. All that is up here is a normal looking bar. Keep walking until you hit the stairs that descend into one of the coolest places to drink on Earth... It is indeed smoky, but get past that and the place is just mythic. Number 78 on the map.
Fashion Club 8 náměstí Republiky www.f-club.cz This place is continuously rated as one of the best clubs in Prague, and it’s no wonder why. With local and international DJ’s, bands and different themed parties on the weekends,

Number 84 on the map.
Part underground labyrinth, part club, part local hangout this place is the hip wierd side of Prague. Affectionately referred to as “Dog Bar” by it's largely 20-something hipster patrons because of the giant dog that roams the bar, this is not your typical place-for-a-pint. Drinks are pre-paid for thru pre-paid bracelets. Come for a unique experience unlike anything else. Number 77 on the map.

Tram and Metro Map
Public Transport Tips:
First let people off, before you get on. If someone elderly gets on, give up your seat. It’s not just curtious, it’s expected here. To fit in on the metro and trams wear your headphones. If you don’t have headphones, then play with your phone instead, or read a book or this magazine. If you’ve been drinking, don’t act like an idiot, even with friends.
Late Night: After midnight, trams switch to “Night Service”, which includes a whole new schedule that can be a bit confusing - especially if you’ve had a few drinks. Our recommendation - call an Uber or Liftago or use a taxi to get to your destination.
Mapping a good cause By Lauren Kania Diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome and Apathetic-Abdominal Syndrome at a young age, fourteen year-old Matthew Hoskova and his family knew that he may have some unique challenges in his lifetime. However, he had a distinct passion that allowed him to surpass any limitation or restriction given to him by the doctors. This passion was the creation and design of maps, specifically, maps of Prague and other surrounding cities in the Czech Republic. Thus, with the help of his family, Matthew was able to create Maappi; maps and designs that convey his own perspective of the world. After Matthew was born in 2004, his mother, Michaela, readily sacrificed her career in order to make life more comfortable for her son. She helped with maintaining his daily rituals and ensured that he developed in a way that contributed to his future desires and ultimate success, as opposed to suppressing them by forcing him to adhere to what others expected of him. Despite visiting doctors who insisted that Matthew would be better off in a school that was designed for children who had
similar social problems, Michaela knew that he would thrive just as vibrantly in a traditional school setting with the help of an assistant to accompany him on the day-to-day with any issues that might arise. Her intuitions proved to be correct, and now Matthew is taking his map designs and creating a successful business for those who want a beautiful and innovative way to represent the city. Maappi has become a way for Matthew to convey his passion for design in a setting that allows him to fully express himself without the restraints some initially feared he would face. Michaela quickly recognized her son’s talent and excitement when it came to creating maps and other designs. She was then able to use her knowledge of fashion to help him produce his work in a variety of ways. Matthew’s designs are now not only on paper, but on clothing, shoes, backpacks, phone cases, mugs, journals, etc. and are available to purchase both online at maappi.com and instore at Kotva Department Store. Even if you aren’t able to pick up a keepsake during your stay in Prague, or would even like to order something for a person outside of the country, Maappi is happy to ship
worldwide! Not only do these maps make great souvenirs for Prague itself, but they also have maps of the cities Brno and Ostrava in the Czech Republic as well for those who want to venture outside of the capital. Maappi centers around the belief that limitations and setbacks never define one’s life and one’s future, rather, they are merely tools that can be used to fuel creativity and to find ways to express one’s passion! It is a family-based company that allows Matthew to express his talents for everyone to enjoy and even includes his younger sister, Sophia, an avid and gifted speed skater, who loves to support her brother by wearing and modeling some of the merchandise. Through this company, Matthew will be able to continue to pursue his love of creating, and hopefully one day fulfill his dream of designing a model for a tram or metro for the people of Prague to ride in and leave a lasting impression on the city that inspired him. Order Maappi products via their website's online store at www. mappi.com.
JULY 2018 | THE PRAGUE VISITOR

PRAGUE
Cocktail guide The best cocktail bars in Prague (like the ones listed here) get pretty busy, even during the week. It's always good to make a reservation just to make sure you get a seat (even at the bar).
Tretter's
V kolkovne 3, Praha 1 www.tretters.cz The Tretter family has been in the bar business for more than 90 years. So it’s no wonder this place feels like walking into a 1930’s Paris or New York cocktail bar. With soft lighting, classic decor and bartenders dressed the part in vintage cocktail jackets, the bar has become an institution. Number 82 on the map. +420 224 811 165 for Reservations
Parlour
Krakovská 15, Praha 1 www.parlour.cz Maybe Parlour doesn’t want to be found – and that’s fine with us. The tiny little bar at the top of Wenceslas Square near the National Museum has a delightful speakeasy vibe to it, though it’s quickly becoming a popular secret. If you should luck out and discover the nearly unmarked entry, inside you’ll find an intimate, dimly lit bar with old jazz and R&B records playing and amazing craft cocktails served in antique glassware. Number 84 on the map. +420 777 200 015 for Reservations.
L'Fleur
V Kolkovně 920/5, 1, Praha www.lfleur.cz L’Fleur is just a few doors down from Tretter’s. Even before our first drink, we fell in love with 1920’s feel of the interior, complete with a Mucha-inspired stained glass window towards the back of the bar. The signature drinks all come with their own history, which your bartender is always happy to explain. If you’re feeling a bit more bubbly, try a selection from L’Fleur’s expansive champagne list. Number 94 on the map. +420 734 255 665 for Reservations
Le Valmont
Hemingway's
California Republic
www.levalmont.cz The Michael Van Cleef Ault concept was inspired by the Milos Forman movie of the same name, and is decorated in 18th-century French fashion with aubusson carpets, antique sofas, and massive crystal chandeliers. Reservations are all but required, since the 100-capacity lounge fills up fairly quickly. Number 90 on the map. +420 224 267 266 for Reservations.
www.hemingwaybar.cz Chances are, if you’ve asked around, you’ve already been recommended to Hemingway’s Bar. The Old Town hotspot just made the “World’s Top 50 Bars” for the third time, and with good reason. The bar’s philosophy is that every customer must have a seat, so you won’t feel overcrowded here. So reservations are recommended. Number 97 on the map. +420 773 974 764 for Reservations.
www.california-republic.cz The California Republic Bar is a splash of Californian spirit in the center of Prague. Stand up Comedy night every Second Sunday of the month. Karaoke every Monday night. Find it on our map at Number 96.
Uhelný trh 414/9, Praha 1
Black Angel's
Staroměstské nám. 29, Praha 1 www.blackangels.cz Nestled in a cozy cellar just across from the Old Town astronomical clock, Black Angel’s will put you in sensory overload. With high cellar ceilings, chandeliers, and ornate decor, it’s a lot to take in. +420 224 213 807 for Reservations.
Bar and Books
Manesova 64, Praha 2 and Týnská 19, Praha 1 Bar & Books is the first overseas extension of the famous New York family of bars, with two locations in Prague (the more casual in Manisova and slightly more formal in Týnská). The bar evokes the feeling of a gentleman’s library. Dim lighting, heavy woods, ornately framed paintings, and of course books (though mostly for visual aesthetics). Number 85 and 86 on the map.
Bonvivant's CTC
Bartolomějská 305, P1 Bonvivant's CTC isn’t huge, but it’s cozy and has a cool 1950’s feel with mid-century wood furnishings, a pressed tin ceiling and a checkered floor. Bartenders are a virtual encyclopedia of drink possibilities and suggestions based on your tastes. +420 775 331 862 for Reservations.
Bugsy's
Pařížská 1068/10, Praha 1
Anonymous Bar

THE PRAGUE VISITOR | JuLY 2018
Up in Smoke Shisha goes by many names the world over, but no matter what you call it, the practice is the same. Kick back, relax and enjoy some vaporized smoke from a hookah water pipe. For centuries, shisha has been associated with luxury and indulgence. In many countries, shisha was historically linked to wealth, but as time has gone by and shisha lounges have popped up across the world, smoking unique tobacco blends has become accessible to a greater variety of demographics and cultures. Smoking shisha is a pastime with a long history, so long in fact, that its origins are a little shrouded in smoke and mystery. Shisha pipes, or hookah, are thought to have originated in India during the Mughal Empire after tobacco was introduced to the country by the Jesuits. From there the water pipes spread to the Near East and were modified to more closely resemble those we are familiar with today. However, some debate that hookah can be traced to Persia during the Safavid dynasty, and that it made its way to India from there. Either way, we know that shisha passed through India and the Near East before making its way here to Europe to be enjoyed by a new audience. After centuries of tweaking and perfecting, shisha has become popular the world over, and Prague is no exception. It's no surprise that a country with such a love affair with smoking has adopted shisha on a grand scale. There are plenty of places to kick back and sample an array of flavored smokes here in the Czech capital. We've rounded up a few of our favorite shisha lounges with a variety of concepts that bring something new and modern to this oldest of traditions.
WoodHouse Lounge
Buddha Bar
WoodHouse Lounge Old Town, Ovocný Trh 572/11, Prague, WoodHouse Lounge Vinohrady, Vinohradská 1215/32, Prague
Jakubská 8, Praha 1, 110 00
With two locations to choose from, WoodHouse is a convenient stopping point when exploring the city. Their venues are open from the afternoon to late night, with a large range of teas and signature cocktails designed by award-winning mixologists to suit any mood. Their old town venue offers a taste of luxury in a beautiful historic location, while their newly opened Vinohrady lounge is a true wood house, decked out with wooden furniture that gives the place an earthy, natural atmosphere and feels so right for smoking plus a perfect outdoor area to celebrate the SUmmer. WoodHouse has truly claimed shisha as their own and reinvented the shisha lounge.
Buddha Bar brings the origins of shisha to the present day in all aspects of the experience on offer. This shisha bar and restaurant serve a variety of Asian cuisines and tobaccos, with décor to complement the fusion of Asian cultures. Each kind of shisha comes with a cocktail recommendation and the restaurant offer a range of sake for drinks lovers. While you can enjoy a meal and a smoke here any Tuesday to Saturday evening, it’s worth checking the website during your trip as Buddha Bar host a number of special events each month. This July their events include Funky Disco, Buddha Bar Beach, Deep! House Night and Europe Meets Asia.

The Internet began as two people – Syd and Matt. Syd taught herself how to record, engineer, and produce at age 15. She also sings, imbuing every song with a sultry, mellifluous, quiet power. Matt produces and plays synths. Like all post-modern
relationships, the duo initially met on Myspace in 2008, only to meet in-person three years later.Get tickets online at GoOut.cz. 650 CZK Famous

„I’m thinking that I should have my pocket repaired – I was learning how to use brakes. I bought myself a skateboard, despite my age. I fulfilled my dream with a thirty year delay. I grew up in the region of Bruntál and in mid-1980s, when I was around ten, a boy from Prague once came and had a skateboard. He let me ride it and I loved it. I assigned a task to my whole family to get me a skateboard but it was simply not possible to get it in our region. I was sad about it but on the other hand, it was just one of five desired items that I wanted at some moment of my boyhood. My parents did manage to get me a bicycle with a derailleur. I didn’t get a sword but my wife promised to buy me one for my fiftieth birth50

day. And I remembered the dream of having a skateboard around the time I was turning forty. I teach cybernetics and robotics at Czech Technical University, I was working in California for some time and I used to ride a bike to the university. But somebody stole it from me after only two weeks. I noticed that students rode longboards and I thought that I might use it as a way of transport. And so I did fulfill the old dream of mine. Actually, I didn’t see it as something bygone – maybe I’m just slow but everything seems to go so fast. It seems to me that it was just now when I wanted the skateboard. At a moment I wanted it, a few things happened after that – high school, university, a short time at work, one, two –
and I still want it. I have met a classmate from my elementary school recently and I boasted that I started playing with it, that I ride it downhill for instance, and he said: ‚Dude, what you wanna prove to yourself?‘ I told him: ‚It’s not like that at all! I don’t need to delude myself into thinking that I’m young. Because I am still young!’“
