Vinohrady is also one of the most elegant and beautiful residential areas in Prague. There are hundreds of Neo-Renaissance, Art Nouveau, pseudo Baroque and Neo-Gothic buildings in the neighborhood. Most were built in the latter half of the 19th century and the early part of the 20th century. As a consequence, the apartments in these buildings are large, airy and very comfortable.

The church of St. Ludmila is a three-aisle basilica. The transept of the church has the shape of the cross. The front of the church features two towers of 60.5 m in height and the tall gable with portal above the main entrance door. The portal is endorsed with the sculpture made by Josef Václav Myslbek. In front of the portal there is a wide single flight of stairs.The towers are constructed on the square ground plan and have five storeys of unequal height. The tall windows with sun-blinds are situated below the tower gables, which also feature the tower clocks. The towers are finished with octahedral steeples. Their construction was completed on 11th July 1892. The slim tall Sanctus steeple rises from the roof above the church aisle.The church of St. Ludmila was ceremoniously consecrated on October 8th, 1893. The main man was the Archbishop of Prague, Cardinal František de Paula Schönborn. Many of the profane and the spiritual celebrities were present.
In front of the church is a lovely little park with plenty of benches for hanging around on. During the Christmas or Easter holidays, a fair opens up in the park and one can purchase plenty of knick knacks for gifts.

Vinohrady carries a reputation of prestige and elegance. It covers portions of Prague 2, 3, and 10. Most of its grand Neo-Renaissance, Art Nouveau, Pseudo-Baroque and Neo-Gothic buildings come from the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, and many have been and continue to be restored in an amazing array of colour and architectural detail.
Vinohrady is approximately defined by the Riegrovy sady park on the north, Havlíckovy sady park on the south, Legerova street on the west, and Jirího z Podebrad square on the east, from there continuing east between Vinohradská and Ruská streets all the way to the Vinohrady Cemetery. One of the most attractive things about Vinohrady now, though, are the large variety of restaurants scattered throughout the neighborhood. If you are staying in Vinohrady Apartments, there are a variety of good restuarnts down on Namesti Miru. A quick stroll up Manesova street yields a plethora of excellent dining opportunities. And best of all, these restaurants are frequented by local Czech people, so prices are reasonable and the food is excellent.

There are several apartments in Vinohrady parks and gardens located in this district which are ideal for a nice tranquil stroll. The largest ones are Riegrovy sady on the north and Havlíckovy sady on the south. Riegrovy sady is a pleasant park stretching between the Italská, Chopinova, Polská, and Vozová streets on the northern edge of Vinohrady, at the border with Žižkov. It is close to walk to from Vinohradská and Slavíkova streets and from the Jirího z Podebrad Square. The park is named after 19th-century Czech politician František Ladislav Rieger whose statue is the work of Josef Václav Myslbek from 1913. Riegrovy sady was established in 1904 - 1908 as an English-style public garden and included a popular observation terrace, which has since deteriorated and is not in use.
