While Prague is filled with iconic photo spots, this city has so much to offer beyond the typical tourist traps. In fact, I’m about to prove that lesser known (but equally gorgeous) Prague Instagram spots are waiting around every corner.

If you’re looking for photo opportunities beyond the obvious, follow me off the beaten path to discover Prague’s most beautiful hidden gems.

While fairytale Prague may be somewhat “under the radar” in comparison to cosmopolitan Paris, it’s catching on quickly in the Instagram world. Considering that this city is a photographer’s dream, iconic Prague Instagram spots are not hard to come by.

So if you’re wondering where to go in Prague for those Insta-worthy shots, here’s some inspiration for your trip.

When I first made the decision to solo travel in Prague, I was admittedly a little nervous. Since this was my first experience traveling alone, I had some reservations.

However, after my first solo adventure, I couldn’t recommend this city more. I never once felt isolated, unsafe, or bored as a solo female traveler.

Prague is one of the safest cities in Europe.

The peaceful Prague Castle District (Hradčany) is situated in Prague 1 and occupies an elevated position over the city.

This picturesque district is one of the city’s four quarters along with the Little Quarter (Malá Strana), the Old Town (Staré Město), and the New Town (Nové Město).

The Prague Castle District offers visitors striking views, hidden gems galore, and access to the world’s largest castle complex.
