Historical, touristic and simply beautiful place. It seems that literally every building and every stone here has its own history. In winter, the main Christmas market of the country opens on the Old Town Square. And on the eve of Christmas, the mayor of Prague personally treats everyone gathered in the square with fish soup.
If you, breaking away from the contemplation of the surrounding beauties, look at your feet, you will definitely see another interesting object. This is the so-called "Prague meridian". It runs exactly through the historical center of the city and is located on the very spot where the shadow of the Mariinsky Column fell at exactly noon (the column itself was demolished at the beginning of the 20th century).
