Petrin Hill
PetYín Hill offers many attractions for children and adults on
holiday in Prague. To start, the funicular ride up the hill is fun
for kids, and when they get there, a climb up the miniature
Eiffel-like TV tower is also exciting. Kids love finding each other
in the
bludištì(mirror maze) hall, and pony rides on the
hill are also a popular activity. The observatory is a fascinating
attraction for older kids.
Information & Facts
Address
Language
Czech is the official language but English and German are
also widely spoken.
Money
The official currency is the Czech crown, locally known as the
Koruna (CZK), which is divided into 100 haler. Most credit cards
including American Express, Diners Club, Visa and MasterCard are
accepted, but it is best to have cash handy when travelling away
from Prague and the main tourist centres. Travellers cheques and
foreign currency can be exchanged at banks, bureaux de change and
some hotels; commission is highest in hotels. Banks are closed on
weekends. ATMs (known as 'bankomats') are becoming more common in
Prague and are probably the best way to obtain local currency at a
good rate and without commission. The Czech Republic is still cheap
compared to the rest of Europe, though the gap is closing.
Time
GMT +1 (GMT +2 from the last Sunday in March to the last
Sunday in October).
