Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The capital of the Czech Republic, it's a colorful mix of funky old buildings in the Old City, and shiny new ones everywhere else.

It's of enormous cultural and historical significance. At different points in history, it's been the capital of the Holy Roman Empire and of Bohemia. It's also been the birthplace or workplace of hundreds of important luminaries, like Mozart and Kafka.

Bisected by the Vltava River and connected by several beautiful antique bridges, Prague is the "city of a hundred spires." The city has a temperate climate, which makes it easy to visit. Here are some beautiful pictures that will make you want to go there.
