WELCOME TO PRAGUE

The City of a Hundred Spires, with its medieval cityscape intact, continues to dazzle as it has for the better part of a millennium. The Old Town Halls Astronomical Clock still chimes the hour as crowds cross the cobblestoned Charles Bridge under the gaze of the castle. With Eyewitness Top 10 Prague, this well-preserved city is yours to explore.

Praguers call their city Matka mst the Mother of Cities a reference to a time in the 14th century when Prague served as the capital of the Holy Roman Empire. Architectural treasures like Prague Castle, St Vitus Cathedral and The Loreto testify to that former grandeur. But Prague is more than pretty buildings. The city of Dvok, Kafka, Bedich Smetana and Vclav Havel still throbs with culture, music, literature, theatre and intrigue. All who visit are bewitched by the spires and the cobbles, the shadows and the tiny lanes of the most enchanting city in Central Europe.

And did we mention the beer? The Czech Republic prides itself as the home of the worlds finest lager. What could be better than winding through the Baroque streetscape of Mal Strana, taking in the National Gallerys collection of modern art at the Trade Fair Palace and enjoying the green spaces of the Wallenstein Garden or Petn Hill and then retiring to a traditional pub like U Zlatho tygra to digest it all over a mug of Pilsner Urquell or Staropramen?

Whether youre coming for a weekend or a week, our Top 10 guide is designed to bring together the best of everything that Prague has to offer, from the bustle of the New Town and the imperial flavour of Hradany to the Gothic splendour of the OldTown and the understated grace of the former Jewish quarter of Josefov. There are useful tips throughout, from seeking out whats free to avoiding the crowds, plus eight easy-to-follow itineraries to help you visit a clutch of sights in a relatively short space of time. Add inspiring photography and detailed maps, and youve got the essential pocket-sized travel companion. Enjoy the book and enjoy Prague.

PRAGUE CASTLE

Crowned by St Vitus Cathedral, Prague Castle (Prask hrad) is the metaphorical and historical throne of the Czech lands. Around AD 880, Prince Boivoj built a wooden fortress on this hilltop above the river, establishing it as the dynastic base of the Pemyslids. In the 14th century the castle became the seat of the Holy Roman Empire. Much of it was rebuilt by Empress Maria Theresa in the latter half of the 18th century, giving it a formal Neo-Classical look. Today the castle is the official residence of the Czech president.
