We step into the Old Jewish Cemetery, one of the most haunting sites in Prague.

We stand before the Old-New Synagogue, the oldest active synagogue in Europe.

Here in the heart of Prague’s Old Town stands one of the city’s most striking modern monuments – the statue of Franz Kafka.

We arrive at Prague’s Old Town Square – Staroměstské náměstí – the beating heart of the city for nearly a thousand years.

We will stand before the Astronomical Clock, known as the Orloj, one of Prague’s most famous icons.

We will pass by one of Prague’s more unusual attractions – the Sex Machines Museum, located just off Old Town Square. It does not play a role in the novel’s plot, but it is mentioned twice in passing, once when Robert moves through the city and again when the Golem roams the same streets.

We will arrive at the Clementinum, one of Prague’s grandest landmarks. This sprawling complex once served as a Jesuit college.

We will step onto Charles Bridge, the most famous span across the Vltava. Built in the 14th century under the reign of Charles IV.

On Charles Bridge, we pause at the statue of St. John of Nepomuk, perhaps the most famous of all the saints lining this span.

We will reach the Kampa Museum, set on a small island between the Vltava River and its side canal. Its modern glass walls stand beside old mill buildings.

We will step into the Wallenstein Garden, one of Prague’s most beautiful baroque gardens, to see the Dripping Wall.

We will stand before Prague Castle, the city’s greatest landmark and the largest castle complex in the world. Stretching over 70,000 square meters, it is less a single fortress than a city within a city.

At the very heart of Prague Castle rises St. Vitus Cathedral, the spiritual symbol of the Czech nation. Its Gothic spires dominate the skyline, visible from almost anywhere in the city.

We will stand before Strahov Monastery, perched high above the city near Petřín Hill.

We will arrive at the Strahov Swimming Pool, a hidden retreat within the city.

We will climb toward Petřín Hill, crowned by its famous Lookout Tower. Rising 63 meters above the summit, the tower resembles a miniature Eiffel Tower.

At the foot of Petřín Hill we pause before one of Prague’s most striking modern monuments – the Memorial to the Victims of Communism.

Standing proudly on the banks of the Vltava, the National Theatre is one of Prague’s greatest symbols of culture and identity.

As we go along the Vltava embankment, the city opens before us – and suddenly the Dancing House comes into view.

We will arrive at the Petschek Villa, a grand residence in Prague’s Bubenč district, once home to one of the city’s wealthiest banking families.
