The largest Christmas markets in the Czech Republic at Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square won't be held this year. The decision resulted from the current situation related to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Traditional Christmas markets in Prague have been cancelled this year due to the coronavirus pandemic. Only a large Christmas tree - 19-metre spruce - is to be set up in the old town to spread seasonal cheer, albeit with modest decorations.
The decision comes one month before the markets were due to open. Normally, around 700,000 people come and stay in the city to visit the famous markets every December.
