🖼️ Prague's National Museum & Gallery - A Local's Honest Review
On a cloudy day perfect for indoor exploration, I visited Prague's National Museum and National Gallery. Here's my unfiltered take as a traveler: 📍 National Museum (Václavské nám. 68) Honestly, it's underwhelming compared to Western European museums... 😅 Highlights: Only 2 floors of main exhibits (natural history & civilization) Small mineralogy collection Feels more like a quick photo stop than a deep cultural experience Verdict: Skip the inside if you're short on time Great for exterior photos in Prague's city center 1-1.5 hours max visit 🕒 Hours: Daily 10:00-18:00 💰 Ticket: 300 CZK (~12 USD) 📍 National Gallery - Trade Fair Palace (Dukelských Hrdinů 47) The crown jewel of Prague's 9-gallery network (ngprague.cz for full list) What to Expect: 2-4 floors of modern + classical art Features Czech masters + limited works by Picasso, Monet, Van Gogh Beautiful exhibition layout despite smaller collection Verdict: Not mind-blowing if you've seen Paris/Louvre or Madrid/Prado Worth visiting only if you have extra time in Prague 2 hours recommended 🕒 Hours: Tue-Sun 10:00-18:00 💰 Ticket (permanent collection): 250 CZK (~10 USD) #TravelTips #PragueMuseums #ArtLovers #CzechCulture #MuseumHopping #PragueItinerary #CityBreak
