Nightlife in Prague
Prague is home to some of the world's best beer ( pivo). Local pubs and beer halls close early - 11pm - while cocktail bars, such as Tretters in Staré Mě sto, the old town, are open until the early hours and clubs often past dawn. Check out renowned classical sounds and arts at the National Theatre, or jazz in intimate, back-street bars. Dress up for Staré Mě sto and Nové Mě sto and down for Vinohrady and žižkov. Smoking is allowed everywhere.
