Czech Republic Travel - Accommodation, Sightseeing Tours, Attractions,
Information
Due to its location at the crossroads of Europe the Czech Republic has a
fascinating mix of tempestuous history and varied, colourful culture. It has
many spectacular buildings and monuments scattered around the country and
more than ten places - including some entire towns, Prague for instance -
have been listed as UNESCO's World Heritage sites.
Prague, the capital, is one of the Europe's most visited cities but the rest
of the country is still well off the regular tourist route so its unspoiled
nature is a great asset for outdoor activities.
The Czech Republic is relatively safe, good value, has excellent transport,
superb sights and both outdoor and indoor activities in good supply.

Travel to Prague - The magical city of bridges,
cathedrals, gold-tipped towers and church domes, whose image has been
mirrored in the surface of the Vltava river for more than ten centuries.
Prague is also a modern European metropolis full of energy, music, and art.
It's a city of contrasts: Serene green isles in the river and peaceful parks
draping the city's seven hills are just steps away from the architectural
treasures and bustling street life of the city center. Prague's atmosphere
is both intimate and romantic, and quite impossible to forget once you
visit.
During a walk through the city, you will quickly discover that the history
of European architecture has left behind splendid representatives of its
various periods and styles. There are Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance,
Baroque, and Classicist buildings, as well as various neo-historic styles
and Art Nouveau.
Fifteen large bridges accent the panorama of Prague. Fourteen span the river
Vltava, one bridges the vast Nusle valley. The oldest and the most valuable
bridge was built in 1357 and bears the name of its founder, the Emperor
Charles IV. You cannot miss it when strolling along the Royal Way, the
famous coronation route of Czech kings connecting the Old Town with the
Prague Castle.
One of the most breath-taking, as well as photogenic, views of the Castle
opens up from the very head of Charles Bridge. The Castle panorama features
just about all the historic architectural styles; it’s not an exaggeration
to say that you are looking at a thousand years’ worth of European
architecture.
The Czech metropolis abounds in theatres, concert and exhibition halls,
museums and galleries. Prague truly offers something for everyone, and each
of its many faces has its own special charm.
