Prague, dubbed the “City of a Hundred Spires”, is the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic, which is surrounded by Germany, Poland, Slovakia, and Austria.

In order to travel to Prague, one must secure a Schengen visa.

A Schengen visa allows one to travel to over 20 European countries: Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.

Prague is proud to have the second-best public transport system in the world.  Furthermore, Prague is the second-best city in Europe for living with children. It also ranked 6th as one of the best places to live. 

It is often boasted as the most cultured city in Europe, given its large number of theatres. Prague is also an architectural gem with its medieval, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture intact. 

Among Prague’s prides is its Historic Centre, which was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

“In the course of the 1100 years of its existence, Prague’s development can be documented in the architectural expression of many historical periods and their styles. The city is rich in outstanding monuments from all periods of its history,” said UNESCO. –Vince Angelo Ferreras/NB, GMA Integrated News
