Máj Národní is a building in Prague at the intersection of Spálená and Národní Streets built as a department store. It is one of the most important representatives of Czech architecture of the 1970s. From an architectural point of view, it is a late functionalist building with elements of brutalism and high-tech architecture created by architects from the SIAL studio. The building was built as a department store in 1972-1975 under the name 02. Shortly after its completion, it was renamed Máj, under which name it was known until the fall of the communist regime. After 1992, it was renamed Kmart after the American chain that owned it. In 1996, Tesco became the owner and operator, operating the department store under its brand. After refurbishing the interiors and introducing a new corporate concept, Tesco rebranded to My in September 2009. In 2019, a company from the AMADEUS Real Estate Group acquired the building. Between 2023 and 2024, the building was substantially renovated, and since its reopening, it has been used as a shopping centre, entertainment space and exhibition space under the name Máj Národní. Since 2007, the building has been protected as a Cultural Monument of the Czech Republic.

Národní, formerly Národní třída, is one of the critical avenues in Prague, Czech Republic. It is placed on the boundary of New Town and Old Town, in the southwest direction from the city's center. This avenue connects the Legion Bridge bridge with Jungmannovo náměstí. In medieval times, there were fortification walls. On Friday, 17 November 1989, riot police violently suppressed a peaceful student demonstration, which is thought of as the initiation of the Velvet Revolution. Národní třída continued to be an eventful locale during the rest of the revolution.

Wenceslas Square (Václavské náměstí)
This Square is the commercial and administrative center of the city as well as the site of important social and historical events. You'll find cinemas, theatres, banks, hotels, restaurants, dozens of small and large shops, and administrative centers here. The Square was created during the founding of the New Town by Charles IV in 1348. Today, it is dominated by the National Museum (1885 - 1891) and Josef Václav Myslbek's statue of the national patron, St Wenceslas, from 1912.

Na prikope (Na Příkopě) is a street in the center of Prague, Czech Republic, connecting Wenceslas Square with Republic Square.
It separates the Old Town from the New Town. It is a place of representative buildings, including the headquarters of the Czech National Bank, old palaces, and luxurious shops.
Na Příkopě Street leads to the site of the former 10-meter-wide and 8-meter-deep moat from 1234, which led along the medieval walls of the Old Town. Water flowed directly from the Vltava River, and when the moat was filled, the Old Town formed a closed island. The moat was covered in 1760. After wrapping, chestnut trees were planted here, and the street was named Ve starých alejích (In old alleys). In 1845-70, the street was named Kolowratská třída, and since 1871, it has bears the name Na Příkopě.
Because it was one of the few vast streets in Prague, it soon became a traffic artery. Since 1875, the first line of the Prague horse-drawn tram has been led here, and it has been electrified since 1899. In 1919, Můstek became the first intersection in Prague controlled by a traffic policeman. In 1927, the second intersection with the light signaling occurred. Many new stores appeared on the street, and it became an important business center of Prague's promenade.
