Know before you go
- These sites are difficult to reach by car or bus because of traffic and thus transport facilities are not offered by the tour operators. Yet it is not difficult or time-consuming to get there by public transport. Liben and Smichov are on the same Metro line some ten minutes apart; at a minute's walking distance from the Metro station.
The Jerusalem Synagogue is close to the metro that takes you to Olsany cemetery in five minutes and the walk to the cemetery is also only a couple of minutes.
- The Plague Cemetery takes a long walk but altogether less than in Jewish quarters.
