EasyTicket Charles Bridge
📍 Czechia Prague 구시가지·말라스트라나
Charles Bridge is Prague's signature stone bridge, connecting the Old Town with Malá Strana. By day, the focus is on its statues and street atmosphere; at night and around dawn, it's all about the lights and the castle silhouette.
The bridge itself is open like a walkway, but the surrounding towers and facilities have their own operating conditions. To avoid crowds, early morning or late night is the most comfortable.

Useful tips
- If you want photos without people, around sunrise is your best bet.
- It's a good walk to come down from Prague Castle, cross Charles Bridge, and enter the Old Town.
- When planning a walking route, you may wonder whether to cross the bridge once or pass over it several times. As the official tourism description says, it's the key link between the Old Town and Malá Strana, so it helps to choose either a daytime walk or nighttime lighting and set that time aside.
- The towers at both ends of the bridge may have different access and operating conditions from the bridge itself, so check tower visitor information separately if you plan to go up for the view.
