Fairly crowded during the noon. I went there at the end of Dec '23 for a holiday. It was such a waste I couldn't visit the national museum. If you have spare time, just visit it. The statue itself is a landmark of Praga (my fellow student said that) so at least, take photos before you leave Checzh like I did.

We went on a Wednesday. It was busy but not crowded. Only pass thru to go to the opera house but stopped at Starbucks for a nice, well prepared matcha latte and for a very delicious pasta and minestrone soup at an italian restaurant i will review also.

Very happening city of Prague .A street with all the branded outlets for shopping , restaurants, and pubs on either side with lots of live music.As it was Christmas time we have visited the street was well decorated with Christmas lights and a Christmas Market at the center grabbed attention of public.

Wenceslas Square is lovely around Christmas where there’s a less crowded and more enjoyable Christmas market (though Wikipedia says this is the place with “the busiest pedestrian traffic in the whole country”) and other activities on the boulevard. Also the place to get a great photo of the Czech National Museum and a few other notable historical buildings like the Koruna Palace, as well as the Statue of Wenceslas.

My hotel was based in the Square. A really central location for shops, restaurants & other sightseeing. The National Museum is just opposite the Square. A really interesting area. 👍😁

A beautiful, historic square right in the heart of Prague. Loads of shops around too! Do visit the Christmas market if you're around in December, there's loads of food and gift stalls.

The last 3 hours before the celebration of the new year 2024 on Wenceslas Square. Emergency services and police are on alert for New Year's Eve.

Wenceslas Square is one of the main city squares and the centre of the business and cultural communities in the New Town of Prague, Czech Republic. Many historical events occurred there, and it is a traditional setting for demonstrations, celebrations, and other public gatherings.
The best spot, to see the whole area of the square is just on the top side from the National museum stairs. You can admire the architecture changes throughout the years from the oldest buildings to the latest modern sites.
While it is the most crowded place in the Czech republic I recommend to be aware of your belongings and careful about pickpockets.

There is a Christmas market / food booths on the main road selling hot dishes, desserts and hot wines. It was quite an experience.

One of the busiest places in Prague for me but very stunning with a view of the National museum at the top of the square. Plenty of nice restaurants and we also visited vytopna railway restaurant and this for me was so fun and unique.

The place is wonderful and beautiful, there are various restaurants to sit down or to order takeaway food and places to drink juice or coffee. Places remain open for a long time and there are shops 24/24 hours. The experience was wonderful

It’s very happening place in front of the museum. Lots of shops and restaurants. Summer is the best time to see lots of activity. Day or night you can always be there. Place to sit and watch people if you are tired of walking.

The square's central location makes it easily accessible and serves as a hub for various activities. Its wide boulevard, lined with shops, restaurants, and historical buildings, creates a dynamic and energetic atmosphere.

The historical significance of Wenceslas Square adds an extra layer of charm. As the site of many key events in Prague's history, it carries a sense of importance and cultural heritage. The prominent statue of Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia, serves as a focal point and a symbol of national pride.

Exploring the square, I was delighted by the diverse range of offerings, from trendy boutiques to traditional Czech eateries.
