A harbour on the Vltava in Holešovice

Holešovice (Czech pronunciation: [ˈɦolɛʃovɪtsɛ]) is a suburb in the north of Prague situated on a meander of the river Vltava, which makes up the main part of the district Prague 7 (an insignificant part belongs to Prague 1). In the past it was a heavily industrial suburb; today it is home to the main site of the Prague's National Gallery, the Veletržní palác, and one of the largest railway stations in Prague, Nádraží Holešovice.
