    Stop at Coffeeshop Company for a warm drink and a sweet treat. The café is open late, so you can linger while the afternoon light is still bright.

    Парк Липки

    Walk southwest through Park Lipki to reach the viewing spot. This short walk gives you time to settle in and find the best angle toward the monastery.

  3. 16:15

    Nativity Monastery

    Watch the sunset behind the 18th-century stone walls of the Nativity Monastery. The sun sets toward the southwest, framing the towers in golden light.

    Прага

    End the evening at Prag pub. It is located slightly further away, but the atmosphere is perfect for winding down after the walk.

Local tip

Check the route to Prag from the monastery, as it is a longer walk than the other options. The monastery walls are open until 21:00, but the sunset view is best from the park just outside.
