Highlights and Sights in Prague

Since the Middle Ages, Prague has enjoyed the reputation of being one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Over the centuries, people from many different cultural areas have met here. This mutual enrichment is one reason for the open, cosmopolitan flair that characterises the city today.

Regarding urban development, the city impresses with its historic, unique constructions and angled alleyways. The city's image is characterised by Gothic and baroque architecture. Roughly 500 towers rise into the heavens from the valley by the Vltava. Surrounded by soft hills, the "Golden City” is a picturesque, total work of art without equal.
