Why we say this

Insider secrets & local vibes

The multi-storey transport hall — hung aircraft above, vintage Tatras and Škodas, trains and motorbikes below — is a genuine crowd-pleaser, and it stays good value and calm even when the rest of the city is mobbed.
Not independently verified — estimated
It's a tram ride out toward Letná, the labelling skews Czech and technical, and outside the transport hall it's firmly a 'museum day' rather than atmospheric Prague.
