P and P.

The first P stands for parking, the second one, you may guess.  If nature calls you want to know where to go… and who would have thought that an entire website is dedicated to this most humane need?

You will find the website below.

Generally, public restrooms in Prague cost you a small fee (usually about 5 Kc) as it is common in most European countries. Somewhat less ordinary, however, is the system of toilet paper dispensers placed on the wall before the actual entrance of the restroom or respectively a lady distributing the valuable good. Beware you have to buy your share of tissue!

In restaurants and cafés you can go for free being a paying costumer, you can always try to sneak your way in, though. Also, the bigger department stores have public restrooms.
