The beautiful ‘Golden City’ of Prague, set on the River Vltava, is a city lost in time, comprising 5 small towns each with their own character and treasures for the visitor to discover. The famous citadel of Prague Castle dominates the skyline of this fascinating city, looking down on medieval cobbled streets, ornate Baroque facades found near the Old Town Square and the restored elegance in the tranquil streets, squares and arcaded buildings of the Lesser Town.

Spanning the Vltava River is the pretty 14th century Charles Bridge, always a hive of activity with pedestrians and where you’ll see street entertainers, buskers and artists.

Wenceslas Square with its stunning art nouveau buildings is a must (its also great for shopping), while at Prague Castle visit the palaces, churches and the stunning neo–gothic St Vitus Cathedral.

With an abundance of lively bars, terraced cafés and restaurants serving local and international cuisine and good bargains to be found in the vast array of shops and markets, Prague is the ideal location for a short break.
