About this tour
This session covers Týn Church and a quieter passage just off the main square, away from the busiest crowds. You see the church's twin Gothic spires, then a facade detail in a passage most visitors never notice. It is a calmer look at the square's edges rather than its busiest centre.
I start at the church and move into the passage for the second stop, keeping a relaxed pace throughout. Questions come as we go, and I am happy to slow down further if a detail interests you. A short note on the church's opening times follows by message afterwards.
This suits anyone who has already seen the clock and wants a quieter follow-up. It also works well paired with a Charles Bridge session nearby.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
