You step off the tram onto ancient cobbles and the Vltava dares you to look up—stone facades leaning over the river, spires puncturing the pale sky. A local guide waits, sketchbook of stories in hand, and together you begin a two-hour walk through the city’s architectural timeline: medieval buttresses, Baroque ornament, austere communist-era blocks, and a fluid modern dance of glass and concrete.
