Be it at lunch or dinner, with friends in a restaurant, or at home with a takeaway, there’s no bad time to eat pizza. And no one knows that better than the Top 50 Pizza Awards. London’s Napoli on the Road has been named the best pizzeria in Europe for 2025, according to the highly-regarded 50 Top Pizza guide. Baldoria in Madrid came second on 50 Top Pizza’s ranking. Its signature Búfala Fest pizza featured on our own list, with Time Out Madrid’s editor Gorka Elorrieta calling it ‘a delightful surprise for cheese lovers’. In third place was a tie between Sartoria Panatieri in Barcelona and Via Toledo in Vienna – though the most represented city overall was none other than Paris. The rest of the prestigious list features a mix of established and rising stars. London scores another win with 50 Kalò, owned by Ciro Salvo, coming in fourth. Madrid’s Baldoria, owned by Ciro Cristiano, follows closely in fifth place, also bagging the award for best pasta dish. Pizza Nuova in Prague ranks #27: “Not only the oven but also the classic Neapolitan style of the pizzas is certified by the establishment’s membership to the Associazione Verace Pizza Napolitana. The pizza is the focal point around which a varied gastronomic offer rotates, from...
Queen Máxima of the Netherlands donated a bell, partly made from Russian weapons, to a church in Prague as a sign of solidarity with Ukraine on 5 June. The Freedom Bell was made by the Dutch workshop Royal Eijsbouts, which used pieces of artillery shells and other weapons used by Russia in its war of aggression against Ukraine. “This bell has a lot of symbolism in it and it’s a very special project for us,” the owner of the bell foundry, Joost Eijsbouts, told Czech media. “To use material designed for violence and turn it into something peaceful is a good idea.” The bell will be installed in the tower of the Church of the Holy Saviour in Prague, replacing one of the original bells that the Austro-Hungarian army took and turned into weapons during World War I. The ceremony at the church, attended by Czech President Petr Pavel and his wife Eva, was to be one of the highlights of the Dutch royal couple’s visit to Prague. However, King Willem-Alexander was forced to cut short his trip and return home late on the evening of 4 June due to the fall of his government. In March, Ukrainian Foreign Minister...
After previous productions of Animal Farm and Les Misérables, the Prague-based theatre group Drama Queens is returning with their most ambitious project yet: The Trial by Franz Kafka. The ensemble is known for its visual style, physical performances, and emotionally direct approach. With this latest play, the company steps into Kafka’s world of shifting rules, invisible power, and unresolved guilt — offering a stage version of The Trial that focuses on atmosphere and feeling rather than explanation. The story follows Josef K., a man arrested without being told what he’s accused of. As he tries to defend himself, he’s drawn deeper into a system he can’t understand, meeting characters who offer no clear answers. Written between 1914 and 1915, Kafka’s novel is often seen as a study of power, fear, and the struggle to stay human in a system that treats people as faceless objects. In this adaptation by Steven Berkoff, the Drama Queens create a version of “The Trial” that combines Kafka’s text with a physical, image-driven style. The set constantly shifts. Light and sound play central roles. The action unfolds not just through dialogue, but through movement, rhythm, and changes in space. Director Martin Murin says the goal...

Central Group, one of the largest residential developers in the Czech Republic, has invested over CZK 6 billion in land across Prague in the past year. These record-setting acquisitions include strategic sites in Prague 3, 8, 9, and 18, with plans to build up to 3,500 new apartments in the coming years. The company confirmed that this is its biggest series of land purchases in 30 years, marking a bold push to meet rising housing demand in the capital. Among the most high-profile deals is a parcel adjacent to the Olympik Hotel, between the Libeň Bridge and Invalidovna metro station in Prague 8. The area, currently housing obsolete warehouses, is expected to undergo full transformation into a modern residential district. This location has long been considered a prime target for redevelopment due to its excellent public transport access and proximity to the city center. Central Group has already initiated discussions with city authorities regarding zoning and project approvals. Central Group also finalized deals in several other Prague districts: Prague 3 (Jarov): Land purchased for future apartment blocks. Prague 9 (Vysočany): Sites with existing industrial buildings slated for demolition and residential transformation. Letňany and Zličín: Large development-ready areas located near metro...
In Prague, drivers spend an average of 57 hours a year in rush hour traffic. Smaller Czech cities are also increasingly plagued by traffic jams. Drivers in Brno or Ostrava do not escape similar problems. However, other Czech cities are also increasingly plagued by traffic jams – for example, drivers spend an average of 35 hours a year in České Budějovice and one hour less in Pardubice. Along with the increase in the number and likelihood of traffic collapses, the average emissions released into the air during journeys are also increasing. In Prague, for example, each petrol car emits an average of 842 kg of CO2 in the time it spends in traffic each year. According to a recent Dutch company TomTom research, 84 trees would have to grow annually to absorb this amount of carbon dioxide for every single car stuck in a traffic jam. Prague is testing advanced video analysis of traffic flow Prague will test a new method of obtaining anonymized statistical data about traffic, the city website informs. In particular, municipal company Operátor ICT will be making advanced video analysis, with the objective of improving the management of the traffic flow and making it more efficient. The purpose is for the capital city to have backing for...
Looking for a summer escape filled with colour, scent, and calm? Across Czechia, lavender farms and herb gardens are opening their gates to visitors, offering a different kind of seasonal experience—one scented with fresh blooms, homemade products, and peaceful countryside views. You don’t need to go to Provence to be surrounded by lavender. Several farms in the Czech Republic now cultivate the purple flower, known for its calming properties and strong fragrance. During peak bloom, the fields are not only a sight to see but a sensory experience—especially when paired with lavender-flavoured treats. One of the best-known stops is Lavender Valley in Chodouň, near Beroun. Here, visitors can explore the fields, try wellness treatments using lavender oils, and enjoy refreshments like lavender lemonade and ice cream. Nearby, you can also visit the Křivoklát Castle or take a tour of the Rückl glass factory, both easy detours from the farm. Further south, in South Moravia’s wine region, the Lavandia Farm near Starovičky opens for the season with its own café and lavender products. The farm sits near the Lednice-Valtice landscape area, making it a scenic addition to any trip to the region. In Central Moravia, Bezděkov Lavender Farm offers something more...
Prague Music Festival (‘Praha Žije Hudbou’) will take place between the 6th and 7th of June. 200 musicians will take part in the ninth year of the street art festival, playing in the streets, squares, and parks of Prague. Praha Žije Hudbou is a multigenre street art festival whose aim is to present street art to the public and support the idea of busking. This multi-genre festival aims to showcase street art and promote the culture of busking — spontaneous artistic performances in public spaces. Over 120 acts, including well-known names such as Annet X, Anki, singer-accordionist Rozálie, David Kraus & Gipsy Brothers, and singer-songwriter Kvietah, will perform across more than 20 locations throughout the city. The festival promotes a simple motto: Art belongs in the streets. With performances ranging from live music to theatre, dance, and magic, Praha Žije Hudbou offers a one-of-a-kind cultural experience accessible to all. What is busking? Busking refers to any form of street performance, not just music. Performers may sing, dance, act, or even perform magic in public spaces. Traditionally, audiences show their appreciation by dropping a voluntary contribution into the performer’s hat. All events in the festival are free of charge, but artists rely on...
A major Bitcoin scandal has erupted in the Czech Republic, unsettling the government just a few months before national elections. The controversy is about a convicted criminal’s donation of more than $45 million in Bitcoin to the Ministry of Justice. This caused widespread anger, led to the resignation of Justice Minister Pavel Blažek, and prompted opposition parties to call for a no-confidence vote. The main issue is that Tomáš Jiříkovský sent the Czech Ministry of Justice 468 Bitcoins, which are valued at roughly $45 million. Jiříkovský is a convicted cybercriminal who was sent to prison in 2017 for hosting the “Sheep Marketplace,” a dark website where users could buy and sell illegal stuff like drugs and guns. The cops took his things when they arrested him, and he had a lot of Bitcoin. Jiříkovský publicly donated some of the Bitcoin that had been confiscated from him back to the police after he was released in 2021. People said that the move was supposed to demonstrate that they were sorry. Critics, on the other hand, argue that it was an organized operation to disguise money laundering beneath a show of kindness. Minister’s Resignation Amid Backlash Justice Minister Pavel Blažek took the...

A new long-haul route connecting Prague and Abu Dhabi officially began this week. The airline will now operate four weekly flights between the Czech capital and the United Arab Emirates, using a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. The inaugural flight landed at Prague Airport on Monday morning and was greeted with a traditional water cannon salute. According to Prague Airport’s Deputy Press Officer Jiří Hannich, the new route signals growing demand for direct long-haul connectivity and broader cooperation between Central Europe and the Middle East. Etihad’s Dreamliner aircraft offers seating for 290 passengers across economy and business class. Flights will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, giving travelers convenient access not just to Abu Dhabi but also to Etihad’s extensive global network. “This route connects the heart of Europe with the Middle East, and from there to Asia, Africa, the Indian subcontinent, and Australia,” said Etihad Airways CEO Antonoaldo Neves. “It’s more than a flight—it’s a gateway to new opportunities for both business and leisure travelers.” The new service is expected to draw significant interest, with Prague Airport projecting more than 50,000 passengers on the route by the end of the year.
