Farmers Market Heřmaňák

If you enjoy an old-fashioned market you can visit the Farmers Market Heřmaňák in Holešovice — just outside the city centre. This is a great place to bring the whole family, and you can find everything from cheese to baked goods here. The same organisation holds farmers markets by the Vltava river on Rašínova nábřeží (very central) and in Kubánské náměstí (further out). See their official website for dates and times, especially around holidays.

Shopping

If you want to shop for uniquely Czech products in Prague, you should visit the small boutiques selling domestic designer clothes, and look for reproductions of the utility designs created by Czech modernists in the 1920s and 1930s — both sectors have grown considerably in recent years. Another traditional item to shop for is Bohemian cut glass.
