Interesting Prague Information

Gone are the days when Prague's beauty was kept hidden from the Western world as the country formerly known as Czechoslovakia was part of the Communist Bloc for decades. Now, anyone who's been to Prague cannot help but be amazed at the astounding architecture found in this picturesque European city.

The skyline is pierced by the imposing structures of Gothic and Renaissance buildings, earning Prague its famous title of "City of a Hundred Spires". Old Town's narrow alleys meander through age-old monuments like the Town Hall's astronomical clock with its unique features. You'll also see Church of St. Nicholas, the best example of Baroque architecture in all of Europe. Tyn Church, on the other hand, owns two of the 100, or 500 if you ask the Czechs, spires of the city.

From Old Town, walk towards Charles Bridge to catch the merry band of buskers serving up the day's entertainment fare. The bridge links the historic quarter to the city's finest landmark, Prague Castle. Trust us when we say you won't miss seeing this colossal property as it is the largest castle complex in the world.
