Prague's medieval center is a charming blend of cobbled streets, walled courtyards, cathedrals, and towering church spires, all nestled under the watchful eye of the majestic 9th-century castle. However, Prague is more than just a historic city – it is a modern and vibrant metropolis buzzing with energy, music, culture, art, fine dining and special events.

As the political, cultural, and economic hub of Central Europe, Prague has a rich history and boasts a plethora of famous cultural attractions that survived the violence and destruction of the 20th century. There is something magnificent for everyone in Prague - from the iconic Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, to the Old Town Square with its famous astronomical clock, the Jewish Quarter, Petřín Hill and Vyšehrad.
