  • Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2014 | In the Czech Republic, we visit Prague to experience its massive castle, beloved statue-lined bridge, evocative Jewish Quarter, and thrilling 20th-century history while enjoying its infectious love of music and perhaps the best beer in Europe. With a beautifully preserved Old Town, Prague deserves its nickname: the Golden City of a Hundred Spires. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #prague

    The Moldau by Smetana is one of the most famous symphonies for classic music fans. I've always been moved by its tunes. It was like a vivid picture of Slavic folk's lives : the country dance, the flowing river, and finally the sea that takes it as the final destination. The song mimics a river of human lives with its ebb and flow, its joy and grief, laughter and moan.

      @@indranil3311 Also live here. And I also thought the same as you, but then I started travelling. As a popular Czech saying says, "všude dobře, doma nejlíp". I learned to appreciate Prague.

    Great Video, Prague is renowned for its stunning architecture, characterized by a mix of Gothic, Romanesque, Baroque, and Renaissance styles. The Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, and the Astronomical Clock are among the city's most iconic landmarks.
