The old town hall is one of the mainstays of Prague's old town square.
The building itself is impressive and made even more famous by the popular astronomical clock just adjacent to the town hall itself. It is arguably the busiest part of the actual town square due to the huge masses of tourists and some locals who are here to snap photos and take pictures of that impressive landmark.
There are opportunities to go up the building and get some really gorgeous views of the town square and Prague itself. It's really hard not to appreciate the beautiful architecture and views in this area.
Note - town square aside, which features a lot of local kiosks and food - a good deal of shops in this area are pure tourist traps and sell a lot of useless junk, unless you're a fan of cheap shitty t-shirts, bags and magnets. However, there are plenty of gems that you can find and this place isn't far in terms of walking distance from other historic and better shopping areas in the city.
