Nerudova Street

At the Two Suns Nerudova street (Nerudova ulice) is a picturesque street leading up to Prague Castle. In this steep street you can find many restaurants, souvenir shops, embassies, but what’s most remarkable about this street are the house signs and the people that lived in that houses. Why house signs? The house numbers were introduced in Prague in 1770. Before that the houses were recognized by their signs and Nerudova street has a vast collection of them.

Nerudova street got its name after a famous Czech poet and journalist Jan Neruda who wrote many short stories about this Prague district. By the way, Pablo Neruda’s name was delivered from the name of this writer. Jan Neruda used to lived in this street between 1849 and 1857. He lived in the house At the Two Suns (no. 47) at the upper part of the street. The house sign belongs among the most beautiful ones. Neruda’s name is also connected with the house At Three Black Eagles (no. 41) where Neruda lived after the death of his father. He made his first collection of poems there.

A word of warning with some of the restaurants in The centre of Prague, if there are no prices shown on menu cards for meals or drinks just walk past as you are likely to be will be overcharged. That said there are some fantastic restaurants here that offer great meal and drink deals with prices displayed on boards outside.
It's a lovely walk down into the Mala Strana ( Little Quarter ) district which is an area that is also teeming with pubs, bars, restaurants and some amazing architecture.

How to get there:
From metro station Malostranska (green line A) continue by tram (no. 12, 20, 22, 23) to the next Malostranska. Nerudova street is just up the hill.

Or just walk down from Prague Castle downhill towards Charles Bridge.
