PRAGUE

A Jewel in the heart of Europe, The Mother of Cities, Golden Prague, The City of Hundred- these are just a few of many of the attributes that Prague has merited. While the Czech Republic is the Heart of Europe, Prague is its soul.

Prague, like Rome, was constructed upon five hills and is shrouded in the mystery of a glorious, tragic past. Since medieval times it has been known as one of the most beautiful city in the world.

Walking through the city, you will quickly discover that the entire history of European architecture has left splendid representatives of various periods and styles. There are Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Classicist buildings, as well as more modern styles, such as Art Nouveau and Cubist. A poet once characterized Prague as a symphony of stones.

Prague is also a very green, verdant city. The hills below Prague Castle, for example, were shaped by Baroque architects who combined splendid palatial buildings with beautiful formal gardens full of pavilions and arbors.

Fifteen bridges accent the panorama of Prague. The oldest, Charles Bridge, was built in 1357 and is named after its founder, the Emperor Charles IV. It's hard to miss it when strolling along the Royal Way, the famous coronation route of Czech kings that connects the Old Town with Prague Castle.

One of the most breathtaking and 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 1,000 years' worth of European architecture.

The islands on the Vltava offer entirely different views of the city. Although they are quite small, their greenery plays an important part in city life. Amid the urban bustle of the city center, these islands are welcome oases of calm, perfect for impromptu relaxation.

The Czech metropolis abounds with theaters, concert and exhibition halls, museums and galleries. Prague truly offers something for everyone, and each of its many faces holds its own special charm.
