The top level outdoor gallery of the Old Town Bridge Tower offers a beautiful view over the Charles Bridge up to the Prague Castle.

Photo tips: This is a sunset or dusk spot, if you want to avoid the hard midday sun. Mornings are only so so, since the Tower doesn't open until 10am, which is an hour after sunrise even in Winter.

You'll need lens in 24-35 mm range to capture the Charles Bridge in the foreground leading to the Lesser Town Bridge Tower and Prague Castle.

Note that the gallery is very narrow and so only some 10-20 people can photograph at the same time (depending on their creativity). So, be there early!

Tripods are not forbidden (yet?), so late evening photography is very well possible here.

Getting there: The Tower is right on the eastern side of the Charles Bridge, close to Staroměstská underground station.
