Malostranské námestí

Fodor's Review:

Arcaded houses on the east and south sides of the square date from the 16th and 17th centuries, exhibiting a mix of traditionally curvaceous baroque and Renaissance elements. The Czech Parliament resides partly in the gaudy yellow-and-green palace on the square's north side, partly in a building on Snemovní street, behind the palace. The huge bulk of the Church of St. Nicholas divides the lower, busier section—buzzing with restaurants, street vendors, clubs, and shops—from the quieter, upper part.
