Visit the popular Náplavka Farmers’ Market on the Vltava riverbank
'Náplavka', meaning riverbank, refers to the embankment of the Vltava River between Palacký Bridge and Railway Bridge in Prague 2, a place where farmers' markets have regularly been held for 11 years. Even though it is not the largest in the Czech capital city, the market is unsurpassed with its friendly, relaxed atmosphere, which is one of the reasons that it is one of the most popular markets in the city. The 2020 season started in February, and the market is held every Saturday.
Farmers’ markets have become phenomenally popular over the past few years, with almost twenty in Prague at the moment. Náplavka Farmer’s Market offers a unique opportunity to connect pleasant shopping with a weekend walk on the Vltava riverbank.
