About
On St Nicholas Eve, wooden boats leave the Vltava and slip into the Čertovka, the narrow canal behind Kampa. Devils lurk along the banks, hurling spooky but kind tales full of fire at the passing boats. On the river you also meet an angel and St Nicholas, who rewards the good kids. A thrill for kids who know the Mikuláš tradition. Very fearful toddlers may find the devils too much.
Where it is
