Considered to be one of Europe's most beautiful cities, and rightly so. Prague been the Czech Rebuplic's cultural, political and economic capital for over 1000 years, and tends to be seen as split into the Old and New Towns. I only had about a day to explore, and only made it through the Old Town. However, this is definitely one of the most stunning cities I have ever been to and as it's only a short train ride away from Vienna, I have every intention of coming back again... |
