The Czech Republic is a small landlocked country in Central Europe, situated south-east of Germany and bordering Austria, Poland and Slovakia. The birthplace of the Pilsner, origination of the bohemian lifestyle and home to the beautiful city of Prague, the Czech Republic is one of the most exciting and beautiful places any traveller can experience in Europe. The Czech Republic packs a sizeable punch for a small country; from its fairytale castles and medieval towns, to elegant spa resorts and scenic national parks. There are plenty of national parks, breweries, vineyards, castles, museums, and much, much more across the entire landscape, which means any traveler will find it difficult to take in all the sights in just one trip.  Start your trip by heading off the beaten path into such spots as Cesky Drumlove, Telc or explore the cave monastery near Karlstejn Castle. If you love wine, you can discover the Mutenice region, home to some of the fine vintages in Europe. In the Czech Republic, you simply must drink beer. The Czechs have a long history with beer. It started with Budvar, dating back to 1785, and is also the home of Pilsner Urquell, the world-famous pilsner of choice produced since 1842. Head out to Riegrovy Sady Park to find of the largest and most popular beer gardens in Prague. 

Prague is an amazingly beautiful city, which can be enjoyed for days, months or a lifetime. Prague is a must-see hot spot for any traveler cavorting through Central Europe. Less than 20 years removed from Communism, Prague has taken full advantage of its newfound capitalism, offering endless shopping, eating and drinking opportunities around every corner of this beautiful city.  The architecture of Prague includes Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque as well as classical buildings and Art Nouveau museums. Prague is also a city of bridges, 14 alone crossing the river Vltava and several unique districts separating the Old and New Towns.  

   Top Things To Do In Czech Republic

Prague is the most modern city of Czech Republic. The main sightseeing areas of Prague are separated by the Vltava River. The Vltava River runs south to north through Prague, separating Old Town and New Town from Mala Strana. The right bank is home to the Old Town, the Jewish Quarter, and the New Town. Spanning the Vltava River and connecting the Old Town and Lesser Town is the beautiful Charles Bridge. Nearly every tourist visiting central Prague will eventually stumble onto the Charles Bridge. On the left bank there is the Prague Castle area and Lesser Town. Generations of Florentines have settled in Prague, so it's no wonder that the Czech capital is home to some of the most acclaimed sculpted gardens northeast of the Alps, with the best located in Mala Strana, close to the Prague Castle. One of the most popular tours is of the Jewish Quarter.  While Jews figured prominently in the life of the city, and ‘The Jewish Quarter’ is identified on maps and street signage, there are very few Jews living here today. Head out to the bustling Penny Market area to shopping and dining. Get out of the city for a relaxing day trip, to spend time exploring the sites in Kampa Island, just off the Charles Bridge.  For a unique taste of Prague culture, drive out to Cerny Most, to experience what life was like when Prague was still behind the iron curtain.
