Charles Bridge in Prague is a historic and iconic pedestrian bridge, renowned for its baroque statues and stunning views of Prague Castle and the Vltava River. Accessibility can be challenging due to cobblestone paving and crowds. Visiting solo allows for flexibility, but guided tours offer historical context. The bridge is open year-round, but it's most crowded during peak tourist seasons (summer and Christmas). A visit is free, but costs can include souvenirs and nearby attractions; expect to spend 1-2 hours enjoying the bridge and its surroundings. Arrive early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid the largest crowds.
