I loved the Old Town Square, its was a awesome place to meet up with the rest of my group, and we met so many other people there. Great for catching a pub crawl, horse and buggy ride, photo opps, and outdoor dinner. This is one place I will have to go back to. Wonderful to look at at night time, when all the lights rae on at the church, and Clock Tower.

Old Town is more than the clock!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/09/08
While the astronomical clock is a must-see on the hour for the apostles in motion, Old Town Square has more. The architecture itself is worth looking at. The Kinsky Palace has nightly puppet shows of Mozart's Don Giovanni...a real treat. You may also visit St. Nicholas Church, admire the Jan Hus statue, see Tyn Church (just behind the ...
The old town square is one of the nicest areas in prague and well worth seeing. The resturants on the square tend to be a bit over priced but I would still recomend sitting down for a coffe and soaking up the atmosphere
Its simply the best and most iconic piece that tells of the granduer and lure of Prague.
The Square is situated with wall to wall shops, hotels, cafes, and historic monuments. The tourists and tight quarters around the square add to its splendor and charm, with a quiet excitement to see what's next around the next bend. With cobblestone ...
I love the charm here. It is manicured and in pristine condition. One can find affordable souvenirs here as well. The restaurants nearby are a bit pricy, but one would want to eat REAL Czech food anyways, so go find a local pub! The value will be far greater. My husband's parents got married here in the late 60's. The photos are the same today.

Clock

If you're visiting Prague, you have to go to the old town square. Forgetting to stop by and see this clock would be a terrible loss. The 12 apostles each make an appearance on the hour. Make sure you get there a little before, since there is always a big crowd. Bottom line, go, you won't be disappointed.
The Astronomical Clock is a good site to see. I went in the fall (Oct.) and you don't need to show up earlyto see it. Just come on th ehour, it's mounted high, and you get to see the 40 second show when the clock strikes on the hour. Otherwise, some little shops in thi sarea, little cafes and ice cream shops, NOT unlike th emillions of ...
Even at the young age of 5, Prague was the place of fun and adventure. Everything about Prague is amazing, from the Prague Castle to the changing colors of the trees on Vyshrehad. But of all the places I loved most in the 5 months I lived there, Old Town Sqaure was by far my favorite. Every day that I was present to watch, you could find me staring ...
GO! Have coffee, meet people, walk the narrow streets, watch the sun go down over a square that has seen amazing history, lots of politics, and wonderful festivals. GO!
