The Dancing House building was designed by the Czech architect Valdo Milunic and the Canadian Frank Gehry. This remarkable structure includes both dynamic and static elements and resembles a dancer hanging from the arms of her male partner.

Years later, Prague is proud to display its magnificent Dancing House. On the top floor there is a café with a terrace overlooking Prague Castle.
