Getting There & Away
» Metro Smíchov lies on line B (yellow). The heart of the district is at Anděl station.
A second metro stop, Smíchovské Nádraží, is further south. Vyšehrad lies 10 minutes
on foot from Vyšehrad metro station (on line C, red).
» Tram Smíchov is easily accessible by tram. Lines 4, 7, 10 and 14 rumble across the
Vltava from Charles Square (Karlovo náměstí) to Smíchov; from Malá Strana take
trams 12 or 20 south. Vyšehrad is better reached by metro, but trams 17 and 21 run
along the riverbank below the citadel. It's a steep climb up.
Lonely Planet's Top Tip
The hilltop fortress of Vyšehrad is an oasis of calm in a busy city. The grassy
bluffs surrounding the cathedral can be a wonderful place to throw down a
blanket and have a picnic, while enjoying the gorgeous views out over the river
and onto Prague Castle in the distance.
