Exploring Prague: Best Things to Do in the Czech Capital, Prague, Czech Republic

Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic or Czechia. Looking down from Prague Castle, you see light coloured buildings with terracotta roof tiles, ornate historical landmarks and the river Vltava running through. Prague is exceptionally beautiful and is well known for its fairy tale appearance. People call it ‘the city of a thousand spires’.

Prague is a wonderful city to visit. Learn about its fascinating history, gaze at the beautiful architecture and enjoy Czech cuisine and beer.

It also has a party culture and diverse night life with a great range of clubs to suit all music tastes. For more information about Prague’s clubbing scene, see: bestclubsprague.com
