INTRODUCTION
Prague is the capital and largest city of the Czech
Republic. Situated in the north-west of the country on the
Vltava River, the city is home to about 1.26 million people,
while its larger urban zone is estimated to have a
population of nearly 2 million.The River Vltava splits
this wonderful city into two halves with Charles Bridge
linking them together. Prague Castle and the Little Quarter
are situated on one side, and the Old and New Towns and the
Jewish Quarter on the other. Wander off the beaten track and
explore narrow side streets and courtyards, where Prague is
often at its most charming and beautiful. There’s something
new and interesting around every corner.
