During the summer in Prague, you can enjoy favorite entertainment - shipping on the Vltava river. A ways to go is now several. You simply need a ride steamboat that transported for example from the center to the Prague Zoo or use the ferry service - already in several places in Prague and also in conjunction with a summer joint.

The most popular way is rent your own boat. You can choose from pedalos, boats or motor boat. Prices per hour rental is around 150 CZK (apx. 5,8 EUR) for 1 boat - up to 4 persons. Remember, take with you proof of identity which is necessary to rent a boat.

Prague´s Main Railway Station

You maybe know the Prague's main railway station (Praha Hlavní Nádraží) is the largest railway station in Prague. It's old name is the Wilson station (Wilsonovo nádraží). It is the home of Czech speed trains – Pendolinos. Here you will find long-distance trains, for example: to Germany (Munich, Nuremberg, Bavaria-Bohemia RE (Regio-Express) and EuroCity/EuroNight services to Amsterdam, Berlin and Dresden), France (the Paris – Stuttgart – Prague), Poland (Krakow, Warsaw), Slovakia (Bratislava) and Hungary (Budapest). Also local and regional trains goes here: to larger czech towns like Brno, Pilsen (Plzeň), Liberec, České Budějovice, Olomouc and Ostrava.

Praha Hlavní Nádraží is also a metro station. It lies on the line C (Red line). It is 3 stations away from the Prague Holesovice railway station (Praha Holesovice), which is also on the „red“ line C.

Even when the reconstruction was delayed (until 2010), we can see the face of the largest secession building of Prague changing to the good, hopefully. Prague Main railway station has suffered many years not just of the notorious D1 expressway, built right in front of it includes adding shops, improving the ticketing areas, restoring the historical section, and adding security around the station.

Now, is some reconstruceted block opened - such as favourite restaurant Burger King.
