First of all, let me tell you one word. It is Amazing and I really mean it from the bottom of my heart.

It is a simple word I use a lot of times but it really is. I am going to explain to you a little bit about my plan to Prague or here they called Praha. I had been traveling and spent a lot of times in Paris and neigbhor hood around Paris so this time I decided to discover something new. I though Prague would be very interesting to visit. It was a destination in my mind for a long time so finally I got to give it a try. I was traveling to Prague during the summer so It was great.

 

 For the first time I arrived at the airport. Here I could get tourist information. I met a girl who works at tourist boot so she help me out and hook me up with a cab driver. Here in Prague cab driver could rib you off that what she said so anyhow I trust her and let her get me a cab. I had a scary ride to the city center. He drove very fast and was texting too. I had to tell him I put my life in your hand for me to drive so please becareful. I think cab driving here is not so great at all, anyhow I arrived to my hotel safely. 

 

 As soon as the cab was arriving at the center of Prague. I started to see the bridge and beautiful town. I said to myself Wow.... It was really beautiful. I started to get very excited and forgot about my grumpy mode from the crazy ride. I arrived at the aprtment hotel right in the center of the main avenue in the city. l got a room on the top floor of the hotel apartment with a balcony where I could enjoy the view. There are many hotels from four stars here where they don't have air condition because the buildings are old so they could not crack or storage them that what I heard from the guy who works at the second hotels I moved too after a few days at the hotel apartment, but luckily my hotel apartment have an air condition in my room. I also had a hard time using wirless since most of hotels here only have wireless accesible in the lobby area so this is how it works here.  

 

 I unpacked and get dress up to go out right away because the look of the city was intrigue all around the corner. It was the whole new experience over all in Europe trip for me. Prague is pretty big so I was just walking around and check out the beauty of architectures all around the city then I found hop on and hop off bus which is my favorite thing to do wherever I travel too. If I could find hop on and hop off. I would do it for my first day of the trip because I get to learn about the locations then I will be independtly going around where I like too. 

 

 I love hop on and hop off here but It doesn't seem like I could spend the one day to get to know  Prague that well. It is pretty big here and most of attractions are very interesting. I already spend half day just on a couple attractions like the Castle. The Castle here is enormous! I have to say Prague Castle is the bigest Castle I have ever seen, more then just the size of it. It is extremely gorgeous. It tells so much how rich this city was back in the history of the castle stretches back to the 9th century. It was very big and inside of the church was stunning. I could not believe what I saw. It amazed me. Prague Castle is one of the most amazing architecture I have ever seen in my life. I spent almost the whole day at the castle then I walked back to the bus stop to get back on the bus but before then there was a coffee shop near bus stop. I had a really good coffee here. There are great coffee all around the city and they still old school on making coffee so it was a great experience just for a simple thing like drinking great coffee as well.

 

 After a tour at Prague Castle I decided to hop off at one location to eat some food. I was walking around and check out menus from difference restaurants then I choose a restaurant with an outside seat and authentic Czech food on the menu with the great old decoration inside the restaurant. I had a wonderful Czech food for the first time. This was absolutely a happiness. I love the goose leg with Czech dumpling. It was so tender and rich in flovor. The portion of food here is big enough to fullfill me for the day. I also love the beer here, some great restaurants have beer brewer in the restaurant. It was totally interesting and I felt amazing to experienced such an authentic and rich cultures here.

 

 In Prague I could enjoy myself just to walk around because there are tons of architectures and details all around and every corner. There were not bordom moments here. I was very active walkign all day and photographing included enjoying Czech food and beer. It was easy to walk around from one attraction to another. I also love boat tour on the river during the sunset. This city is absolutely romantic so I would suggest you to bring your love ones or get marry here. It was romantic and classy. There are so many beautiful restaurants along the river side so pick ones you like, some place they have the ballet show. I had a great night watching the show while I was enjoying the over looking of the riverside and Charles bride under the perfect weather was the best thing I could ever ask for from this trip. I had such an enormous pork knee just for one person was way too much but this is Czech style. It is big and mostly pork. In eastern Europe people love pork so if you don't eat pork, proably you can give it a try trout fish here. I had a great trouth fish with side of authentic Czech spinich and potatoes. It was delicious. I have to suggest you to try the absent here. If you are hard core enough then give it a try. I had to say I had too much fun, eating great food and drinking absinth! Here in Prague they are big on absinth and there are some interesting shop where I could buy some absinth chocolate and even wired liqour with some scorpian inside the bottle. That was very interesting.

 

 Prague is a city of history and cultures so there are plenty of gallery, art painting and jewelry shop. I love the painting here, especially art paint of the astronomical clock. I had to buy it no matter what. The astronomical clock tower was very stunning and brilliant! It was so phenomenal and brilliant of people who build this amazing piece of art. I was so stunned by every single details, colour and the thougful of every pieces. In this area near an astromonical clock tower. There are an open area for food vendor where I could get a fresh roasted ham. It was enjoyable to watch and then ordered for some. Then enjoy a fine drink of ice coffee Czech style. What an amazing life and the wonderful times in Prague! The memory will always be with me and Prague will always be my all times favorite destination.

 

 

Best Season:

I visited Prague during mid August and it was beautiful, however the best time to visit could start from from spring during March-May,but summer is usually more expensive for the hotel rate but summer will make it better for the sightseeing. The early fall would be nice too and hotel rates are usually go down.

I was blow away for the first time I arrived in Prague. This city was undescribeable. I was like oh my god. It is huge, gorgeuous, stunning and fascinating. Prague is one of best cities in Europe. The richness of history and architecture that is so remarkable! In every corner and streets, there always little details of art to see, more than that I traditional Czech food was amazing. What impressed me the most about dining here was that they brew the beer in the restaurant. From remarkable history, art, architecture and food culture. What else can I say? It was just so memeorbale.
