Known as the City of a Hundred Spires, in relation to its impressive spire filled skyline, the city of Prague is the undeniable jewel of Eastern Europe. The city has been attracting visitors looking to enjoy both short city breaks and longer holidays for the past fifteen years, and looks set to hold its attraction for visitors from all over the world for many years to come.
The Gothic architecture of the city can be breath-taking, with far too many churches to visit in just the one long weekend, and yet there is something about the city that makes it a romantic place to be even for the coldest of couples. Wherever you go in this wonderful city you are never too far away from the intrinsic culture of the nation. Wherever you wander around the city streets you will be able to smell fabulous food and hear incredible music floating out across the city.
One of the things about Czech food is that it is substantial so if you are looking to enjoy the native cuisine as you work your way around the city, you should be prepared to return home a couple of pounds heavier.
This is not a city for the weight conscious as you will find the flavoursome food of the city more than just a little hard to resist. Although a popular destination there are still people that have not ventured eastwards to sample its delights but with cheap flights to Prague readily available from Jet2.com it is a place more people should travel to.
