Malá Strana (Lesser Town) is a district in Prague, Czech Republic, and one of its most historic neighbourhoods. ​It is on Vltava's left (west) bank, on the slopes just below Prague Castle. The name distinguishes it from the more prominent districts of Prague on the right bank, with which it is linked by the Charles Bridge.
Initially, when it was founded in 1257, the district was called the New Town beneath Prague Castle (Czech: Nové Město pod Pražským Hradem). When Charles IV founded the New Town of Prague in 1348, Malá Strana was renamed the Lesser Town of Prague (Czech: Menší Město pražské). In the 17th century, the unofficial name Little Quarter (Czech: Malá Strana) was used.[iew of Malá Strana from St. Nicholas Church
In 1419-1420, the Malá Strana was burnt down by Hussites. In 1541, a fire severely damaged the town and killed fifty people. After this fire, the city was rebuilt in the Renaissance style, and many palaces of nobility were built there.

Újezd Street connects Karmelitská Street with the Kinsky Square. It measures about 550 m and is part of the old road leading from the Lesser Town Square to South Bohemia and Germany. The Újezd territory belonged to Smíchov, which used to be one of the oldest settlements in Prague. The Hunger Wall, built during the reign of Charles IV, cut the street in the middle - there used to be a gate to the Lesser Quarter. The name is derived from the word újezd - farm, land, which can be bypassed. Today, it is a vital traffic junction that serves both automotive and tramway traffic. Here, you will also find the funicular to the famous Petřín Hill and many excellent pubs and bars worth visiting. More importantly, there is a memorial to the victims of Communism located at the base of Petřín Hill - it is a rather disturbing series of statues dedicated to the victims of the Communist era between 1948 and 1989. The memorial was unveiled on May 22, 2002, and is the work of the Czech sculptor Olbram Zoubek and architects Jen Kerel and Zdeněk Holzel. It is a unique work of art - male statues appear to be disintegrating and decaying before our very eyes, the first man whole to the last man, who becomes nothing and stands as a symbol of to what extent the political prisoners of the regime were affected. An interesting touch is the bronze strip in the centre of the stairs - it tells the estimated number of people affected by the Communist regime.

The Infant Jesus of Prague (Czech: Pražské Jezulátko: Spanish: Niño Jesús de Praga) is a 16th-century wax-coated wooden statue of the Child Jesus holding a globus cruciger of Spanish origin, now located in the Discalced Carmelite Church of Our Lady of Victories in Malá Strana, Prague, Czech Republic. First appearing in 1556, pious legends claim that the statue once belonged to Teresa of Ávila and was donated to the Carmelite friars by Princess Polyxena of Lobkowicz in 1628.
