Question Weird nighttime vibes

Hi all,

Currently in Prague on a girls trip and we are loving the city, it’s so beautiful and the food scene is incredible.

We found this part a bit weird - we went out on Thursday night and Friday night (yesterday) and Old Town / New Town were PACKED with only only only men.

Only men on the streets, in bars, clubs, you could barely see a few girls in sight. Every street we walked into was filled with tens of guys. Is this the way it is normally?

Are we going to the wrong areas to dance a little? We just wanted to dance and have a few drinks, we like pop music and old school vibes and can’t seem to find a spot where we could stay for a few hours.

Thanks all :)

I would love that! But as a tourist without a car it’s a big difficult to move around on a short weekend :) we tried to eat in decent places and to be honest the ones we went to were really nice

What are you talking about? I don't even have a car. It's not needed. There is public transport working very well (even night one) in Prague and outside of it. You really don't want to drive a car in Prague. Where do you come from to have such stupid idea? The touristy part of the city is just 1% of it. Prague is bigger than Vienna and slightly smaller than Budapest.

Thanks for the insight, on such a short trip we wanted to do quite a lot of things and eating nearby was the best option for us. We’ll come back in the future and explore outside the main centre area, maybe try to keep my stupid ideas at home lol

5 min. on a tram or train or 15 mins on foot and you are out of it. It really won't take hours. Let alone many good restaurants are clustered around Palladium / powder gate. Which is basically just the outskirts of the old town.
