Well, in this fairytale town known as Prague, yes there is shopping if you can steal your eyes away from all the beautiful scenery and old buildings. Remember we are using our Czech "koruny" to go shopping.
Together with the opening up of the economy after the collapse of the communist regime the supply of all goods in Prague has been fundamentally extended. Recently, big western brands, luxury boutigues, fast foods are appearing around the city. Most shopping malls and arcades are located in the center of Prague in Wenceslas Square, in streets Na Ponci, Narodru trida, around the National Museum, Pariszka and by Old Town Square.
There are many shops selling souvenirs, t-shirts with "Franz Kafka" on them, Mucha merchandise, Russian dolls, flaunting puppets, and Czech porcelain, glass and wooden toys. If you are looking for more unusual shopping head down hidden passages, and to the arcades and backstreets of Lesser and Old Towns. In this little shops you can find many bargains, and curious and interesting things.

Again remember that just as like any big city - there are many pick-pockets. This is a real danger so please keep all valuables inside your coat and shirts!! This is a big tourist center, and you wouldn't even feel them taking your valuables. The emergency phone is "112" like our 911.
