How to get there
Bus
Recommended
Buses serve the area, but direct routes are less convenient than metro or tram. Utilize the Staroměstská metro and tram stops for the most direct access.
Metro
Recommended
The closest metro station is Staroměstská on Metro Line A (Green line). From there, it's a short walk to the Jewish Quarter.
Walking

Bike
The area is accessible by bicycle, though specific bike lanes within the historic quarter may be limited.
Car
Driving is not recommended due to pedestrian zones and limited parking. If driving, use the Rudolfinum underground garage (OLD TOWN PARKING) near Jan Palach Square.
Taxi
Taxis and ride-sharing services can drop you off near Pařížská Street for easy access to the synagogues and the Old Jewish Cemetery.
