PRAGUE
is like a history lesson come true. As you walk among the long stone
palaces or across the 'Charles Bridge', with Smetana's Vltava flowing
below and pointed towers all around, you will feel as if history had
stopped somewhere back in the 18th century. Goethe called Prague the
'prettiest gem in the stone crown of the world'. This cultural center
of Europe is famous for its architectural treasures that have been so
well preserved. Its wealth can be gathered from the diversity and
quantity of the many Romanesque monuments and its Gothic town planning.
In time new styles developed, like Baroque and later on Art Nouveau.
The countenance of Prague reflects every cultural period and all the
different artistic styles.
Musical life is a deeply rooted tradition in Prague. One only needs
to remember the names of the two greatest Czech composers,
Antonin Dvorak and Bedrich Smetana. Their music can still be heard.
It is said that it is an advantage to be a foreigner in Prague.
The renowned Slavonic hospitality manifests itself in Prague at
every step. A lot of traditional Czech products are offered, like
crystal, porcelain, earthenware, but also CDs, and illustrated
art books. The national beverages like beer and sliwowitz are worth
a try and restaurants offer a wide variety of food. Prague is ready
to welcome its visitors and let you share in the experience of
'awakening to a beautiful dream'.
