Prague, the 'City of a Hundred Spires', is sure to captivate. Explore its medieval centre, wander the cobbled streets and soak up the vibrant contemporary culture. See the Old Town and the Town Square with the Town Hall Tower and astronomical clock before crossing the Vltava via the Charles Bridge to visit St Vitus Cathedral and Hradčany Castle. The city also boasts a pristine and varied collection of architecture from Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance to Neo-Classical and Art Nouveau, having suffered considerably less damage during World War II than some other major cities in the region.
