The Jurys Inn Quick Guide To Prague
Prague, capital of the Czech Republic, comes with its fair share of history. You can tell, because building on the New Town began in the 14th century. History stares at you from every cranny, around every corner and down every irresistible alleyway. Days can be lost combing its markets, back streets and vendors’ wares, and all the while you’re conscious that this city has seen upheavals, scientific advances, religious revolt, wars, occupations, fires and so much more.
City highlights
Old Town Square Charles Bridge Wenceslas Square Prague Castle Gothic Powder Tower
Cities don’t get much more Bohemian, and wandering through Prague on foot, crossing from one side of the Vltava river to the other beneath the towers of the awe-inspiring Charles Bridge, it really is possible to feel history. That said, Prague is very much a city making up for decades of lost time as a former Soviet Bloc satellite. These days its 1.2 million citizens want to experience life to the fullest, so culturally and entertainment-wise this is a city that knows how to entertain you. It’s no real surprise then that over four million drop by as visitors during the year, especially as it’s been recognised since 1992 as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
From the Old Town Square to Prague Castle, Wenceslas Square to the streets of New Town, Prague is waiting to show you a great time, and a lot of history.
