Basically 'passive' prestige gains are too big and you can't really 'play as you want' as developers claimed. Instead, you must grow cities to maximize passive prestige gains.
In my example (see screenshot), I'm getting 115 prestige every turn, which is base of 92 excluding golden age bonus. For comparison, triumphs in this age grants about 300 prestige - they need big investment but it's only worth about 3 turns of passive prestige gains.
And the biggest prestige gain comes from production and technology. How do you increase them? By growing a city and building a lot of crafting improvements. And there's nothing special here - you should be doing that it in every game.
Of my 10399 prestige, 3030 was from more 'active' source - namely waging war, building triumphs and making masterpiece. Which means prestige from passive gain was like 7k, which is more than double of active gain.
BTW I'm saying big cities are strong because I'm getting +28 prestige from technology and +40 from production, these are my biggest prestige sources. And my big capital is the main source of both science and production.
244 science is coming from Warszawa, out of 552 total science. Same goes with production - I didn't check total production number as it's too much hassle, but the capital city's base production is 140 while second largest city's base production is 56. Also, the capital has 22 production buildings out of empire total of 61.
