Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: Cannot deserialize the current JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) into type 'SmartTours.Models.Availability' because the type requires a JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) to deserialize correctly.
To fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) or change the deserialized type to an array or a type that implements a collection interface (e.g. ICollection, IList) like List<T> that can be deserialized from a JSON array. JsonArrayAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON array.

Top Places To Visit & Tourist Attractions In Prague

Charles Bridge

Old Town

Petrin Hill

Prague Castle

Jewish Quarter

One of the most iconic landmarks of Prague is the beautiful Charles Bridge. Completed in 1402 to allow carriages and pedestrians to cross the Vltava River, the Charles Bridge is now mostly a tourist attraction and is filled with buskers an hawkers. The bridge itself is a work of art lined with ornate statues of Catholic Saints. On our holidays to Prague, we’ll have the opportunity to admire the statues and embellishment up close as we stroll along this historic bridge.

Prague’s the ‘Stare Mesto’ or Old Town was once the heart of Medieval Prague and is still home to some of the city’s most famous fixtures including the Jewish Museum, the Astronomical Clock and the Old Town Hall Tower. The centrepiece of Stare Mesto is the huge 1.7 hectare Old Town Square. It has been Prague's working heart since the 10th century and hosted the city’s largest market until the beginning of the 20th century. On our trips to Prague, we’ll explore the Old Town with the help of an expert, local guide to give us the history of this beautiful city.

This 318m (1043ft) hill is topped with a network of eight parks and the perfect place to take in panoramic views of the ‘City of 100 Spires’. The parks on Petrin Hill also include a number of different monuments and attractions including a lookout tower, a funicular, and the medieval defensive wall known as the ‘hunger wall’. On our holidays to Prague, we’ll have plenty of free time to visit these sites, take a brisk walk through the parks or enjoy a leisurely picnic overlooking the city skyline.

With a magnificent cliff-top outlook, an over 1000 year history, and an enormous scale that qualifies it as the biggest ancient castle in the world, Prague Castle is the indisputable centrepiece of the Czech capital. On our trips to Prague, we’ll learn about the heritage of this beautiful castle, starting from its origin as a simple walled-in compound in the 9th century to the ornate masterpiece it is today. The castle buildings represent virtually every architectural style of the last millennium, making it a must-see for architecture lovers and history buffs alike.

This slice of Prague’s ‘Stare Mesto’ contains the remains of the once-thriving neighbourhood of Josefov, the city’s former Jewish ghetto. Inside the Jewish Quarter, there are a half-dozen old synagogues, a ceremonial hall and the powerfully melancholic Old Jewish Cemetery. Perversely preserved by Nazi leaders who declared them to be a 'museum of an extinct race', these buildings instead have survived as a memorial and reminder of seven centuries of oppression. On our trips to Prague, we’ll have the opportunity to visit this area with an expert guide to give us the context and history of what we’re seeing.
