A walk through one of Europe's best-preserved Jewish quarters should be at the top of your to-do list. This compact neighborhood just off Old Town Square is full of unique, hidden treasures, mostly overlooked by the general tourist fare. There are six synagogues here, as well as an impressive, centuries-old cemetery that is worth a look.
