Anyone can follow in the footsteps of Charles IV
From the bank of the Vltava you step through a gate into medieval Prague. The illuminated story of Charles IV leads from the glowing Charles Bridge past the royal crown to the golden spires of the Gothic city — every stop a chapter of its own: king, builder, emperor. Thousands of LED lights and welded sculptures trace the coronation jewels, cathedral arches and legends of the imperial court.

| TYPE OF SEASON PASS | ONLINE |
|---|---|
| Season pass, 1 adult (1 park, whole season) | 1 490 Kč |
| Season pass 1+1 (adult + child) | 2 450 Kč |
A season pass = entry all season, once a day at most (weekdays and weekends).
It is sold online only and is issued in the holder's first name and surname, which we check at the entrance — so it cannot be passed on to anyone else. The 1+1 pass is issued in the adult holder's name and, on each visit, admits the holder and one child aged 3–14 — it does not have to be the same child every time. It is valid for this park only.
Prices are final and include all fees.
Adults and children alike can follow in the footsteps of Charles IV — the route is interactive, bringing the Middle Ages to life through a story in light that entertains and teaches a little along the way.
