 +This is a not-updated section about Prague's neighborhoods. The realities of some have changed considerably in the recent years. Lots of new constructions and housing-market bubbles have contributed to a lot of gentrification going on everywhere - especiallu upper and lower Zizkov, Dejvicka region and Letna. 
  
   * **Zizkov - Prague 3.** Probably the most beautiful part of Prague. More raw and dirty (the bottom Zizkov) to fancy and yuppie (upper Zizkov - around the Jiriho z Podebrad metro - bordering with Vinohrady), with lots of cool bars opened till very late. The zone starts to be too fancy and too gentrified tho (2025 note).   * **Zizkov - Prague 3.** Probably the most beautiful part of Prague.

   * **Letna - Prague 7.** More fancier, "creative industry" part of Prague.   * **Letna - Prague 7.** More fancier, "creative industry" part of Prague.

-  * **Krymska.** In recent years pretty hyped street that started to gather its own public after several bars and caffes opened on it. Its home to Cafe v Lese, Plevel resturant, Zenit bar with bar Sladkowsky behind the corner and many more.

-  * **Center - Prague 1.** Tourist infested and expensive, however contains also several nice places - the streets in the former jewish ghetto, streets on the "small side" leading up to the castle, bars like Duende, <del>Literarni Kavarna</del>, Vzorkovna.. the Film Academy and Theatre Academy and Music Academy are in Prague 1 too. The center is divided by the river. The part across the river under the castle is called "Mala strana" - small side. A nice cafe there is eg. Cafe Misenska. +  * **Center - Prague 1.** Tourist infested and expensive, however contains also several nice places - the streets in the former jewish ghetto, streets on the "small side" leading up to the castle, bars like Duende, <del>Literarni Kavarna</del>, <del>Vzorkovna..</del> the Film Academy and Theatre Academy and Music Academy are in Prague 1 too.

-  * **Naplavka** The right bank of Vltava river between the "Manes building" and the "Palarik square" is a place that is very alive during summer months. <del>Several ad-hoc bars and cafes, food and a zillion of people getting drunk every night. Sometimes a little obnoxious (especially on weekend nights) however its nice to go there for a walk during the day, sit at the river and have a beer. Can be extremely dirty and loud, but also calm, depends when one goes there (and when was the last rain).</del> This has changed in recent years because the city re-developed Naplavka into some fancier version, this summer will be actually the first time open since reconstruction.+  * **Naplavka** The right bank of Vltava river between the "Manes building" and the "Palarik square" is a place that is very alive during summer months.
