Wenceslas Square

This is one of the other major points of the Czech capital. It is located in the cultural and commercial center of the city, in the New Town, and at almost 650 meters long, its size is astonishing. On one end, at the top of the stunning hill, is the National Museum. At the other end, the shopping district. Many downtown streets end here making it almost impossible not to visit when you're touring Prague.

King Vaclav (907-935) was the King of Bohemia in the 10th century and canonized in the Orthodox and Roman Catholic Churches. He's known as the protector of the Czech Republic, Prague, and producers of beer and wine.
