Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is often called the "Golden City" for its shimmering beauty and the wealth of its history. Its identity is intrinsically linked to the winding Vltava River, which flows through the heart of the city, creating an atmospheric, unforgettable urban landscape.

Dominating the western bank is Prague Castle (Pražský hrad), a monumental complex that has served as the seat of Czech kings, Holy Roman Emperors, and presidents for over a thousand years. Founded in the 9th century, this immense citadel is recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the largest ancient castle complex in the world and houses the magnificent St. Vitus Cathedral.

Connecting the castle district with the historic center is the Charles Bridge (Karlův most). Commissioned by Charles IV in 1357, this Gothic stone bridge is a pedestrian masterpiece lined with 30 Baroque statues of saints, offering unparalleled views of the Vltava and the city’s spires.


On the east bank lies the Old Town (Staré Město), a medieval maze of cobblestone streets culminating in the famous Old Town Square. This vibrant square is home to the Astronomical Clock and Týn Church, a hub of both daily life and historical significance.

Finally, standing elegantly on the Vltava embankment is the National Theatre (Národní divadlo). Completed in 1883, it is a symbol of the Czech national revival, representing the country's cultural independence and pride with its striking Neo-Renaissance architecture.
