Are you coming to Plzeň by a car? Would you like to know where to park in Pilsen City Center to be close to Pilsen sightseeings and attractions? Read our guide and learn where are the best parking places in Plzeň Czech Republic.


Coming to Plzeň by a car

As Czech Republic is a wonderful country with stunning scenery, I do recommend coming by (or hiring) a car so that you can have the freedom to visit places, which are not so well reachable by train or bus. It saves you a lot of time and money, especially if you are traveling with kids. With the car you are also more flexible and you can use the opportunity to discover also the beauty of Plzeň region.


Where to park in Plzeň?

Plzeň as other big cities has to regulate the parking in Pilsen City Centre. Especially from Monday till Friday are parking places in Pilsen occupied by people working in Plzeň Centre or coming to Pilsen from neighbouring towns and villages.

All of the Pilsen tourist attractions are located within one area of Plzeň City Center. Therefore, the historical sightseeing places can be visited on foot. Fortunately, there are still enough parking places in Plzeň, but of course you have to pay for it.

Some of car parks accept card payments but payment at self-service machines is possible only by cash. Be sure that you have Czech currency.
