Why you'll love it
Prague is the Czech capital, a city of spires, cobbled lanes and Gothic and Baroque buildings along the Vltava River. It scores 9 out of 10 for culture, and 8 for food, nightlife, romance, value and safety, so it's one of Europe's most well-rounded city breaks.
The best time to visit Prague is May to June or September, with mild weather and long evenings. Winter is cold, with Christmas markets in the Old Town Square.
Walk across the Charles Bridge early in the morning, then climb up to Prague Castle and St Vitus Cathedral. Watch the Astronomical Clock in the Old Town Square, and explore the Jewish Quarter. Czech beer halls serve hearty dishes such as svíčková. For views, head to Petřín Hill or the beer garden in Letná Park.
Prague suits couples, groups of friends and budget travellers.
