A Walk Through Post-Industrial Holešovice: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

 

The Czech capital Prague has more to offer than just the old town, castle and Charles Bridge. Former industrial quarters such as Holešovice have been discovered by young people, reverting the long trend of people moving into suburbs. This creates an exciting mixture of industrial heritage and modern ideas. You will see a huge market area in the city's former slaughterhouse, a former multi-story garage and the harbor with new residential buildings. There is a multitude of tiny cafés built into the old brick structures and an art gallery that is famous for its huge “zeppelin” above the roof. We will finish at a club that looks like the setting of a science fiction movie.
