Alexei Novak

Alexei Novak – First encounter with the Czech Republic in 2005 My acquaintance with the Czech Republic began with an unexpected inheritance – a distant relative left me a small house in a picturesque village near Brno. I planned to quickly process the documents and sell the property, but fate had other plans. When I first stepped over the threshold of this ancient house with its tiled roof, a strange feeling came over me, as if I had returned home. Apple trees bloomed in the garden, neighbors brought homemade bread and told stories about my ancestor – a Czech musician. Deciding to stay for a few months, I hardly noticed how they turned into almost 20 years of life between Prague and the towns of Moravia, where I constantly discover new facets of this country. The Czech Republic is multifaceted. Behind the postcard views of Prague and the famous beer lies a deep culture that often remains unnoticed by ordinary tourists. Those who find an approach to the locals discover a completely different country – not the one shown in guidebooks. Over these years I have conducted hundreds of tours to little-known corners of the Czech Republic and written two books on Czech cuisine and traditions. I've had the opportunity to consult for historical films shot in the Czech Republic and create an educational program about Czech culture. I help tourists in difficult situations and share my knowledge with everyone who wants to see the real Czech Republic – a country where every stone breathes history, and every mug of beer can be the beginning of an amazing friendship.

Petřín Hill

Petřín is a 327 meter hill on the left bank of Vltava River in the center of Prague. One of the legends says that it’s the very place where the Princess Libuše foretold golden age and world’s fame of the city of Prague.

You can get to the top of the Petrin hill on foot or by a tram-like funicular. If you have got an active ticket on all public transport, e.g. a 24-hour ticket, the admission on the funicular is free of charge. The only problem with the funicular is a long queue, especially at weekends.

There is also a nice green park on top of the hill where you can have a good time and eat tasty ice-cream.

You will also enjoy magnificent view from the Petrin Observation Tower made as an imitation of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

The small replica of the Eiffel Tower was built in 1891 and it’s five times less than the original. For an additional fee you can climb the observation deck placed on top of the tower.

Another amazing attraction is the so called Hunger Wall. It was built by order of Charles IV. According to myth, the purpose of the wall was to employ and thus feed the city’s poor during the severe famine.
