The city of Prague has provided a suitably historical setting for countless movie productions. Its streets are well trodden by visitors, too: the capital of the Czech Republic is so much more than a stop-off for travellers and a stage for the advertising world.
Prague is a jewel, an opulent and sensual metropolis. It’s a city of writers, saints and Art Nouveau nudes. A place of Cubism, Kafka and dumplings; a place where the beer flows as freely as the local Vltava River.

City guide
“Place to be”: Discover the trendy Kampa Park restaurant, where an aquarium separates the seating area from the kitchen, and enjoy a splendid view of the Charles Bridge.
City portrait
The Charles Bridge can be very crowded at times and its towers can become a pedestrian bottleneck. The city’s warren of narrow streets attracts visitors from all over the world.
