Europe
Czech Republic
The Czech Republic offers extraordinary historical and cultural richness, anchored by Prague, one of Europe's most beautiful and best preserved capital cities. From the Gothic spires of Prague's Old Town and the medieval splendour of Kutná Hora to the spa towns of Bohemia and the Moravian wine country, the Czech Republic offers a depth of European heritage that few countries can match.
Elect's take
"Prague is one of the cities I return to whenever the opportunity arises. Few European capitals combine such concentrated beauty, history and cultural life in a setting that remains relatively accessible."
Prague's historic centre is extraordinary. The Old Town Square, Charles Bridge, Prague Castle and the Jewish Quarter create a concentration of architectural heritage difficult to find anywhere else in Europe. The city has a strong literary and musical culture and an excellent café scene. Beyond Prague, the Czech Republic offers Kutná Hora's remarkable medieval heritage, the elegant spa towns of Bohemia and the Moravian wine country of rolling hills and traditional villages.
