A large shopping mall close to the Széll Kálmán tér with lots of shops, banks, restaurants and cinemas. Wonderful for a stroll and a quick bite when one is going to visit the Buda castle the bus to which is located in the vicinity. The location is easily accessible by metro, buses or trams. There's a lot to choose from.

A beautiful terraced garden in the Italian style. It has amazing views over Prague landmarks, an aviary with lots of exotic birds, fountains, wonderful niches with flowers and shrubbery where one can sit and enjoy the peace and quiet in the heart of Prague. There is also a small gallery usually featuring local artists' works. It's definitely worth visiting for the low entrance fee.

This is a pleasant café in the heart of Prague conveniently located at Wenceslas square close to the metro. It has comfortable seating upstairs at street level as well as downstairs. It is quiet and ideal for chatting over a cup of tea or coffee. However, we were there during a hot summer day and the air-conditioning was unpleasantly cold, we were so cold, we had to leave earlier than expected and looked for another café which was warmer.

A book store with a large selection of Czech and English language books. It is located in the Atrium Flora mall, has a very pleasant atmosphere, wide and spacious, and friendly and helpful staff. Apart from books, one can buy stationery there, postcards and various souvenirs.

Beautiful square with the dominant Hungarian Parliament building, gorgeous views of the Danube River, very spacious and clean. There are a lot of statues and parks surrounding the area, a tram stop as well as the metro station. There are many cafés and restaurants as this is a popular spot for tourists. Definitely a must when visiting Budapest.
