EUGENE FODOR
Hungarian-born Eugene Fodor (190591) began his travel career as an interpreter on a French cruise ship. The experience inspired him to write On the Continent (1936), the first guidebook to receive annual updates and discuss a countrys way of life as well as its sights. Fodor later joined the U.S. Army and worked for the OSS in World War II. After the war, he kept up his intelligence work while expanding his guidebook series. During the Cold War, many guides were written by fellow agents who understood the value of insider information. Todays guides continue Fodors legacy by providing travelers with timely coverage, insider tips, and cultural context.
One of Europes best-preserved cities, Prague has a romantic riverside location enhanced by graceful bridges and a magnificent skyline punctuated with medieval church spires. Its historic Old Town follows a plan laid out 1,000 years ago, with ancient squares and winding cobblestone streets. Haunting Prague Castle looms large across the Vltava River, rising above the exquisite Charles Bridge. Add extravagant, fairy-tale architecture; memorable classical music; and, these days, good food and drink, and its easy to see why Prague charms everyone who visits.
Historic architecture: Gothic, baroque, Renaissance, Art Nouveauits all here.
Prague Castle: This Gothic fortress and soaring cathedral were Kafkas inspiration.
Jewish heritage: Historic synagogues and sights reflect an 800-year-old legacy.
Old Town Square: The citys pulsing heart fans out below the twin-spired Tn church.
Excellent beer: Czechs brew the best pilsner, and Prague pubs know how to pour it.
Classical music: Musicians from Dvok to Mozart made their mark in Prague.
The City of a Hundred Spires is staggeringly beautiful, but it seems to have lost a bit of the swagger it had a decade ago, when it was the travel industrys golden child. But thats not such a bad thing, because theres a new air of maturity, and people are realizing that the city can no longer rest on its architectural and historical laurels. Part of this renewed sensibility can be traced to the death of former president Vclav Havelan international icon and hero of the 1989 Velvet Revolutionin 2011. The second came in 2013, when Prague experienced another major flood in little more than a decade. Both events were a reminder that good things should never be taken for granted. The result is a city thats palpably more introspective, and perhaps a bit more appreciative of the thousands of visitors who come here each year.
