Explore The Magnificent Prague

by Nasrul Hanis

in Europe

My cousin told me about her visit to Prague. I asked “How is it?” and she answered “Magnificent!” so I thinking of sharing about Prague too. Prague is located in Czech Republic and had been defined as the most exciting city in Central Europe where you can find wonderful restaurants and amazing nightlife in a trip. Besides having wonderful architectural and cultural sites, Prague also offers you the beauty of Vltava river with wooded hills and parks located opposite to the pedestrian friendly center.

If you’re planning a trip to Prague, plan to stay for at least a number of days because there is a lot of things to see from Prague Castle and Old Town Square to various museums and zoo.

Visit the Prague Castle. The Prague Castle is the most popular tourist site in the entire city. It is the world’s biggest ancient castle. In existence since the ninth century, the Prague Castle has three courtyards and an impressive wooden fortress. The castle is so vast that as a tourist you should allot yourself at least a few hours to see everything properly. You will understand simply by strolling along the cobblestone streets of the old town, observing the fantastic architecture of the buildings, the churches and the magnificent Castle.

Take a view of maybe some photos of stunning and wonderful architecture in Prague – from Gothic to Renaissance and baroque to neoclassical, and from art nouveau to cubist. Explore through the Medieval lanes of the Old Town and Castle District. After visiting various places, take an escape an enjoy the peaceful view of Vysehrad, Stromovka Park or go to the top of Petrin Hill where you can enjoy a memorable views from there. Good news for shopping lovers where you can get various local products at reasonable price.

Don’t worry about transportation matters as you got Harness Prague’s excellent public-transport system to help you explore the interesting places. With cheaper prices an welcoming local ambience, you can assure yourself from any doubt while traveling.

It is cool in Prague during day where it is suitable to take a walk around the city. However it could be rainy so plan some alternatives such as visiting galleries or museum. No matter if it is winter or summer, you have the chance to enjoy Prague at its best.

“I even wish I could stay longer!”, as my cousin said.

For those of you who’ve never been to Prague…you need to visit. Spent a week there last summer and it was amazing! The pictures are great but they don’t do the city justice.

I have never been in Prag but I would like to go there asap. A good friend of mine enjoyed her trip too as you did. The told me that food and clothes are very cheap. As I am from Germany, I think that I could find a cheap flight to Prag and spend some days there.
When did you have been in Prag, in summer or in winter?I heart that it could be very cold in winter.
Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.

I was in Prague last autumn and I can say that its an amazing city. In one hand at day time its romantic and in other at night its a clubbing paradise. Also restaurants are extremely cheap and there are amazing bars. I can recommend “Wine cellar”, which is located underground in several basements.
