[2025 Prague Attraction] Travel Guide for Strahov Library (Updated Jun)

📍Location: Prague 💰Price per person: about 75€ (Almost 24h stay, not including hotel fee and round trip transportation to Prague) I planned a trip to Prague on the impulse of being drunk the day before. Arrived at Prague Central Station around 1pm Basically, it's a small city for sightseeing, so walking is enough You need to buy a ticket and activate it❗️ for the tram and subway!! You get caught and fined quite often in Prague. It's better not to try to slip through. I walked towards the castle and looked around the shops I had marked On the way, I found several Christmas markets near the Clock Tower Square and bought a huge beef hamburger for about 14€ and a beer for about 3€! Needless to say, it was delicious! I also tried cornet ice cream, a Prague specialty?! The pistachio flavor was delicious. I saw a lot of gummy candy shops so I bought some because I thought they were famous. There were also some dirty jokes, which was fun 🤭 The work of lighting the lights on Charles Bridge is an old tradition, and it was so popular that everyone was following the people and taking photos and videos! I ended up not being able to enter the castle at night, so I took some photos nearby and then headed to the hotel! On the way, I stopped by the John Lennon Wall and had the famous honey cake at a cafe near the Japanese Embassy. The owner was a cute old lady, and she made the cocoa carefully and was cute too! The honey cake was so delicious that I really wanted to eat it again (cafe: Café Kafíčko) And then❗️An unexpected❗️problem❗️ I couldn't get into the hotel I booked on trip.com! I was standing in front of the hotel at 8pm in despair. It was pitch black in a new country, and I was in charge of reservations, so I felt very sorry >_

#summervacay This summer, I stepped into a scene straight from a fairy tale—the **Strahov Library**, hidden within the ancient **Strahov Monastery** in Prague. With its soaring ceilings, celestial frescoes, and shelves of centuries-old books, it felt like wandering into a wizard’s sanctum. Here’s why this library is a must for any traveler who loves history, art, or the magic of the written word. ### **First Impressions: Grandeur Behind Closed Doors** Tucked atop **Petřín Hill**, the monastery complex offers sweeping views of Prague’s red rooftops. But the real treasure lies inside: the **two breathtaking halls** of the library. 📜 *Fun fact:* Founded in **1143**, Strahov is one of the **oldest monasteries** still functioning in Europe, and its library holds **200,000+ volumes**, including medieval manuscripts and rare first editions! ### **The Theological Hall: A Divine Masterpiece** Entering the **Theological Hall** (built in 1679) felt like stepping into a Baroque dream. The ceiling fresco, *The Wisdom of God*, swirled above endless rows of leather-bound tomes. The hall’s **globe collection** and intricately carved wooden cases made it clear—this was a temple of knowledge. ### **The Philosophical Hall: Enlightenment in Every Detail** Even more jaw-dropping was the **Philosophical Hall** (completed in 1794), a soaring space filled with **42,000 volumes**. The ceiling painting, *The Spiritual Development of Humanity*, stretched like a sky full of ideas. Sunlight streamed through the windows, illuminating the gilded titles of books that once shaped empires. 🔍 *Hidden gem:* Look for the **"secret passage"** doors disguised as bookshelves—they lead to hidden corridors! ### **The Cabinet of Curiosities: Where Science Meets Wonder** Connected to the library is a **17th-century curiosity cabinet**—think antique globes, preserved sea creatures, and even a **dried "dragon"** (actually a ray fish!). It’s a reminder that libraries of the past were also places of wild discovery. ### **Tips for Visiting** - **Photography:** No flash, but tripods are allowed (perfect for capturing the halls’ symmetry). - **Timing:** Arrive early or book ahead—only small groups are let in at a time. - **Combine your visit:** Pair it with a stroll through **Petřín Gardens** or the nearby **Prague Castle**. ### **Final Thoughts** The Strahov Library isn’t just a collection of books—it’s a **time capsule of human thought**, where every shelf holds centuries of stories. For lovers of history, art, or quiet beauty, this is Prague’s most enchanting secret.

Prague, Czech Republic, is a registered World Heritage Site and is said to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Here are some of the most recommended sightseeing tours in Prague! ! ① Strahov Monastery Library This place is said to be one of the most beautiful libraries. There is the Hall of Philosophy (second photo) and the Hall of Theology (first photo), each with a different atmosphere and very stylish library. The Hall of Philosophy has frescoes on the ceiling, and it was a wonderful space. The Hall of Theology has medieval books and exhibits, giving it a sense of history. The admission fee is about 1,000 yen. But it's worth more than that, so I definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Prague! ! ② Seminarciska Garden There are several gardens on the hill, and it was a perfect place for a walk on the weekend. I went to Seminarčka Garden (picture 4) and took pictures of nature and the beautiful scenery of Prague's Old Town. 📸 There are many gardens, so it's a great area for plant lovers. ③ Petřín Observatory Tower An observation deck on a hill in Prague where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Prague. The tower is shaped like the Eiffel Tower, but it's smaller at 60 meters. But since it's on a hill, the view from the observation deck is amazing. It was raining and cloudy when I went, but it was still a wonderful view. Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, and the Old Town. A 360-degree tour of the city, where everything is so stylish, is one of my favorite spots! The observation deck ticket costs about 1,500 yen. There's quite a line, so I recommend purchasing tickets online in advance! Then, on the way back, we went down the hill to the Old Town while enjoying the view. Please use it as a reference. ✈︎---------------------------------------------✈︎ 📍: Prague, Czech Republic 📸: Canon EOS 5D MarkⅣ ✈︎----------------------------------------------✈︎ #Travel tips for overseas trips #Europe travel #Europe sightseeing #Europe travel #Czech Republic #Czech trip #Czech Republic #Prague #Prague sightseeing #Strahov Monastery

#MarchTravelSupportEvent A monastery brewery to drink beer! We just call it a brewery, but when I checked Google Maps, the exact name was SV.Norbert.

Strahov Monastery in Prague is also famous for its beer brewing, but this library is a must-see because of its beautiful ceiling paintings.

The ticket booth is just in front of the library. The admission fee is 120 CZK. It's on the outskirts of town, but it's easily accessible by train.

#EuropeanTravel The hidden trail behind the monastery brewery in Prague was a place where you could enjoy nature in a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Walking along the tree-lined path, you could feel a different kind of quiet charm from downtown Prague, and it was perfect for a leisurely walk away from the noise of the city🌲✨ In particular, there was a great viewpoint where you could see the whole view of Prague at a glance as you went up the path, so it was nice to stop for a moment and take a picture📸 If you want to experience a different kind of charm of Prague while taking a light walk, I recommend the trail behind the monastery brewery💖 📍 The trail behind the Strahov Monastery in Prague, Czech Republic

#FallHo-kang-seu-event Personally, the best place I've visited in Prague. It's the road from Strahov Monastery to Petrin Tower. You can walk to Petrin Tower on a flat road with a gentle slope, and the view of Prague on the way is so beautiful. It's a short distance, but I can't take my eyes off it after taking pictures, so time passes quickly.

#AutumnHo-kang-se-event The view of Prague after eating at the Strahov Monastery. It was the most beautiful view I've ever seen in Prague. You can see it on the way to Petrin Tower, and if you go at sunset, you can see the sunset sky. A place I highly recommend you visit when traveling to Prague.

#FallHospitalityEvent Strahov Monastery, famous for its beer brewery. When I went during a cold and ambiguous time, I was able to get a seat inside without waiting. The old monastery building was renovated into a brewery and is operated. The beer is delicious and you can order snacks and meals.

Strahov Monastery is home to a library said to be the most beautiful in the world. As its name suggests, the library is located inside a monastery founded in the 12th century. There are two must-see spots😉 The first is the Philosophical Hall in the first and second photos. The shelves are filled with medieval books and the ceiling is decorated with beautiful frescoes. The second is the Theological Hall in the third and fourth photos. It has a more sacred atmosphere than the Philosophical Hall. Both are so beautiful that it's hard to decide which one to use as the main image, and you can't help but be entranced🤍 There are also other exhibits such as old books and stuffed animals. This is a place you definitely want to visit if you visit Prague! ✈︎---------------------------------------------✈︎ 📍: Strahov Monastery, Prague 📸: Canon EOS 5D Mark Ⅳ 💶: About 750 yen ✈︎---------------------------------------------✈︎ #Europetrip #Europetrip #Europetourism #Europetrip #CzechRepublic #CzechRepublic #Prague #Library

#HotelAccommodationEvent Strahov Monastery located in a scenic area with a view of Prague Castle and Prague. The building that was once a monastery is now a brewery, selling food and beer. Recommended menu: Pork ribs, goulash The price is not expensive, and the pork ribs are soft, odorless, and delicious. The goulash is not salty when dipped in the bread provided, and it is good to eat as a warm appetizer. As expected of a brewery, there are many kinds, the beer is fresh, and there is something special that you can only drink here. #PragueRestaurants

It costs 150ck (about 1,000 yen) to visit, but it is worth the visit as they lend out explanatory materials in Japanese and you can see a number of exhibits of the furnishings that have been collected over the years.

The Strahov Monastery is located at the foot of the Petiten Mountain in the Strahov district on the west side of Prague. There are fascinating tour groups in the glory. We are here, and the rain is still quiet and beautiful. The Strahov Monastery was once a place where the monks practiced their knowledge, a hidden building surrounded by greenery, and a large old yellow tree outside, the most beautiful autumn leaves. with the support of the Bishop of Prague and the Czech Duke Sobeslav II and King Vladis II, in 1143, the first to go to Premont Reyes from Schwingfeld, Rhineland, Germany Arrived, a monastery with a permanent history in the history of the Czech Republic was established. Enter the monastery, you can see the St. Loch Church on the left hand side, and the main entrance of the Church of the Virgin Mary, opposite the main entrance, the remains of the founder of St. Norbert.
