I've been to Prague 6 times already, the first time I went was back in 1990, the last time was in summer 2007 for a long weekend. It has changed a lot in all this time and it is still changing...
Back in 1990, when Prague was still the capital of Czechoslowakia, there were hardly any tourists. We went on a school trip, had to have a visa for going there and drank lots of cheap alcohol and old re-imported Pepsi. A memorable experience!
In the 1990s I visited a few times, with friends and we had a great time every time. I almost died laughing in a toy shop twice, we made the castle guards laugh and drink from our beer in the night and we stayed in private apartments outside the city centre. Prague got more busy, the Americans and Italians arrived and with them there arrived new shops and new bars and a fantastic nightlife! We explored all sights and also went to football and ice hockey matches.
In summer 2007 I came back for a company trip, 10 years almost since my previous visit. Prague was very crowded and clean - definitely too crowded and almost a bit too clean. Still it was great to come back! We were invited to quite a few cool bars, restaurants and clubs, walked for miles around the old town and laughed a lot.
Enjoy this page, even if partly it's not one of my most serious ones ;-)
Sabsi
- Pros:Old town charm, lots of things to do, great food, good value prices
- Cons:I always wonder how the locals feel if the tourists invade their city like they do here!
- In a nutshell:One of my favourite cities in Europe.

Praha is still waiting for me. Maybe next year.
A very good Prague page.
Oh, der kleine Maulwurf... und dann gab das noch diese tschechische Märchenserie mit dem Zauberring, der hübschen Prinzessin Arabella und dem bösen Zauberer Rumburak :-)
A great page. I've been to Prague 4 times. A very nice place.
Incredible! You found an ugly building in Prague. And I was sure there weren't any...
