Why is Prague a special city?

          Prague lies at the heart of Europe; and therefore, it is one of the finest cities of the continent. The capital of the Czech Republic, the city is the centre of Czech Republic’s economy and culture. The city’s urban life dates back to more than 1,000 years. A glorious city, Prague has a rich architectural and fashion heritage.

          The city has many important landmarks and tourist attractions. The Charles Bridge, which stands astride the Vltava River, is the finest example. The winding course of the Vltava, with its succession of bridges and changing vistas, is another landmark in Prague. The great castle of Hradcany, known as the Prague Castle, dominates the left-bank region of the city. The city has narrow streets, little taverns and restaurants in the older quarters. There are many churches that attract people with their architectural accomplishments. The historic city centre of Prague was added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List.
