Bethlehem Square

Karoliny Světlé 34, 110 00 Praha-Staré Město, Czechia

If you are looking for a quiet place to relax away from the thick crowds of central Prague, try Bethlehem Square. A 5-minute walk from Old Town Square, it is a quiet, calm refuge hidden away from the tourists. Named after Bethlehem Chapel (founded in 1391) which is located here, the square is just two blocks long and surrounded by fairy-tale Baroque buildings and several restaurants, cafes, local antique and book shops and a museum of African, American and Asian art. There is also a hotel if you want to stay in an ultra-convenient location but far from the crowds. I gladly spent an hour or more in this peaceful square, admiring the beautiful surrounding buildings and golden setting sun while enjoying a glass a wine. One of the most relaxing spots in Prague!
