    Take Tram 22 from Prague castle base to reach here. Free park on the top. One of the best panoramic views of Prague city from the top. The park is poorly maintained but still a must visit. You can see entire Prague and one of the best views of Charles Bridge from the top. Evening sunset is the best time to visit Letna Park and take some cool pictures.

    This is a gorgeous spot to watch the sunset. Do note that there are quite some stairs to climb in order to reach the viewpoint/ park so do take that into account. The park itself is spacious and nice too and there are walls to sit on to watch the sunset. I loved coming here around 8:30 pm with the whole crowd watching the river and the Prague landscape. Definitely reccomend!
