A Polaroid Guide To Prague

Our good friends Tereza Jarčičová and Michel Čáp have created the first Polaroid city guide, Spud. Armed with their trusty Polaroid camera they visit every inch of Prague seeking out the best spots the city has to offer.

Focusing on fresh places with unique atmosphere the guide depicts the best cafes, shops, creative studios and architectural sites. Spud approaches the people behind the projects, telling stories through the eyes of those who are shaping the city.

This is an independent guide for independent travellers and it is not to be missed!

Whether you are familiar with the extraordinary city, or new to its sights Spud makes for an interesting read.

You can check out the full listings on Spud @ http://www.spud.cz/en. Please share via social media and spread the word !
