Prague, Czech Republic Travel Guide

Castles, bridges and beer

Why visit Prague

The Charles Bridge, the Old Town Square and Prague Castle form one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval cores. Prague is a walker’s city — cross the Vltava at sunrise, climb to the castle for the panorama, and finish with a pilsner in a smoky beer hall. It is also the cheapest city break on this list, with excellent rail links to Vienna and Budapest.
