Žižkov

Žižkov has recently been undergoing renewal. Many old buildings are being restored and new residences are being built, for example Garden Towers and Central Park. There is also a large number of cafes and restaurants in this small area. In the past few years, Žižkov has become a residential area and the prices of properties have been increasing. It also has a high number of pubs and places of entertainment like the Palác Akropolis. Landmarks that you can visit include the Žižkov tower, the statue of Jan Žižka, Olšany cemeteries (the largest graveyard in Prague, where many well-known people are buried). Right around the corner of Olšany cemeteries is the shopping mall Atrium Flora with expensive stores and a cinema.
