Charles University,

The building
of the faculty will be opened from from 9 a.m., so you can leave your luggage
there to have some walk, or just relax, have
coffee, tea
and cake, meet the organizers and ask questions, etc.
See the map of
the whole Prague below to get an idea of the part of the city in which
the faculty building is located (marked by the red
rectangle):
On the following map, the
part of the city marked by the red rectangle above is magnified to the
full size. Another red rectangle gives you
still better approximation
of the location of the faculty building. As you can see, it is pretty near
to the center of the city - the main square
(Vaclavske namesti) is marked
by yelow circle.
Another enlargement of the red
square onto the full size map gives you the overview of the local situation.
The building of Faculty of
Mathematics and Physics is located
approximately 100 meters from the metro station KRIZIKOVA (line
"B", or the "yellow line" of the
Prague metro system):
All main railway
stations are directly connected to the metro net, and you should reach
the meeting point within 30 minutes from any of
them. We recommend
to consult city maps and other information available on metro stations.
In case of any trouble please contact the
organizers on
the local phone number 21913220.
The price of
taxi from the airport to the center should not exceed 500,- CZK (approx.
16,- Eur). Ask for a preliminary
estimate of
the price and in case of any doubts also for receipt. Please do not pay
any exorbitant amount. Our best experience is with ProfiTaxi
(local phone
14035).
For individual
transport we give the following hints. If you go by car from Prague, follow
highway D1 from Prague toBrno, exit to Jihlava and
then follow
road no. 639 to Kostelec u Jihlavy and then no. 406 and local signs

3 h 30 min. The interval of trains is approximately 2 hours.
