Jiřího z Poděbrad Prague

Prague's trendiest quarter

Thiago from Prague

Hi, my name is Thiago. I'm originally from Brazil, but I have been calling Prague "home" since 2019. I'm a graphic designer who loves cinema, talking to people, collecting vinyls, walking around, and people watching while having a cup of coffee or a nice beer. Why Prague? I like to say that I didn't choose Prague, but Prague choose me. My girlfriend got a job here, and since I w...
"Jiřího z Poděbrad (JZP) is a beloved square in Vinohrady with bars, cafés, restaurants, a lively farmers’ market, and beautiful sunsets at Riegrovy Sady."

Jiřího z Poděbrad, Jiřák or JZP, you can choose your own way to call this beloved square in the heart of Vinohrady. This is one of the trendiest areas for locals in town: a bit casual, a bit hipster, or BoBo, if you will.

In its surroundings you can find a great variety of outstanding restaurants, bars and cafés: Burgers (Hoxton), sausages and steaks (Mikrofarma), Chinese homemade noodles (Chi Xiao Mian), roasted chicken (Kro Bistro, Kohoutek), craft beers (BeerGeek), cocktails (Las Adelitas, BOHO), fresh seafood (Seafood Vinohradská, Černomorka), tapas (Gilda), coffee and pastries (The Miners, Cafefin, Tisse, MamaCoffee), french wine and bread (Le Caveau), traditional Czech food (U Růžového Sadu) or with a modern twist (U Tellerů) and much more!

From February to December, a bustling farmers’ market takes place every Wednesday through Saturday.

While in the area, don’t forget to check out the beautiful sunset at Riegrovy Sady.

(Note that the square is going through a massive reconstruction – planned to be completed by mid 2026 – but don’t let that hold you back)

Prague Spotter Thiago

Hi, my name is Thiago. I'm originally from Brazil, but I have been calling Prague "home" since 2019. I'm a graphic designer who loves cinema, talking to people, collecting vinyls, walking around, and people watching while having a cup of coffee or a nice beer. Why Prague? I like to say that I didn't choose Prague, but Prague choose me. My girlfriend got a job here, and since I was working as a freelancer we decided to come together for a year... and then 6 years have passed. As Kafka once said, this city has claws that won't let you go, and I'm glad for that =)

Pet Cemetery

Dogs, cats and rabbits rest here

The Bohnice "Pet Cemetery" in Prague is a small jungle. It's touching and interesting to see how deeply in love some pet owners were with their companions.
