Jewish Quarter
 

Description

In a small area of the Old Town between Staromestske namesti and Charles Bridge, lies the historical Jewish Quarter (Josefov) with its old walled ghetto, cemetery (containing 12,000 tombstones), and various synagogues including the Old-New Synagogue dating from 1270 (the oldest in Europe still in use). Dating from at least the 13th century, with its many cobbled streets, courtyards and squares, the area provides an atmosphere which is unrivalled in Prague - especially at night.

Going back ASAP
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 4/27/07
The Jewish quarter was beautiful and heartbreaking. The cemetry was incredible and so was the Spanish Synagogue. However everything closes at four or five pm, so make sure to get there early. I also had the best food while I was there.
