Vyšehrad Fortress

Older than Prague Castle by legend, Vyšehrad sits on a cliff south of the center and gets a fraction of the visitors. The National Cemetery here holds Dvořák, Mucha, and Čapek among other Czech greats.

Come for sunset — the view over the Vltava from the ramparts, with almost no one else around, is the most underrated in the city.
