There is plenty of tasty food available from the Christmas market stalls, but it is important to know that the famous Prague ham, roasted to perfection over an open fire, is sold by weight and not at a fixed price per portion.
The largest of all the Christmas markets in Prague, right in the heart of the city, is on Old Town Square and features live music and an enormous Christmas tree. Make sure to be at the full hour near the Astronomical clock to hear its sweet tune and see the famous figurines moving.
What better place to experience the magic of Christmas than in the grounds of the largest castle in Europe? Buy handmade Christmas decorations and sip mulled wine whilst gazing over the city. For the best view go to the west end of the castle complex.
This square, close to the metro station of the same name, is easily reached by metro or tram. It features a petting zoo and is a favorite with families. It is less crowded and prices here tend to be more moderate, making it the preferred Christmas market in Prague for many thrifty Czechs.
Prague is a great place to get your Christmas shopping done and to find unusual gifts for your family and friends. Look out for shops that sell Bohemian crystal, amber jewelry, or merchandise from the main Prague soccer teams, Slavia and Dukla.
A shopping mall right in the middle of Prague that could well be your one-stop for all your holiday shopping needs.

A little known gem to outsiders but much beloved by the locals, this market is great to pick up some unusual gifts. Handmade Christmas ornaments, artisan cheese, or that special bottle of Slivovice, plum brandy, that can't be found anywhere else.
