Prague | Czech Republic
A walk through the narrow, gaslamp-lighted streets, a kiss under a tree in blossom in a Baroque garden, a cruise on a historical steamship, night time at a castle or chateau, a ride on a steam train, a wedding in a chateau park
all of these are ingredients in the cocktail that is Prague. And it's up to every visitor which ingredients to add. Undulating topography gives Prague its inimitable beauty and its stunning panoramic views; Prague's many hills provide some stunning vistas. The city's huge number of towers led to the city being called "the city of a hundred spires" several centuries ago, and at present there are around 500 towers in the city.
