Prague´s city skyline is dominated by the cathedrals: St Vitus, Tyn and St Nicholas. But there are many other towers, most of them churches on the skyline. Prague is actually nicknamed "city of 100 spires", which tells a lot about the city's medieval skyline. In the outskirts, ugly concrete highrises with up to 20 floors are everywhere, but there are very few skyskrapers in Prague. The tallest buildings are situated in the southern outskirts, far from the center. The TV tower is by far the tallest structure in Prague and can be seen from the whole city. The TV tower is also a good spot to get up if you want to see the city from above. There is also Petrín Tower, an immiation of the Eiffel Tower, but there you have to climb up sine there is no elevator.
