Prague

Last week I visited my sister in Prague for couple of days. Prague is very cultural, with a lot of history, romantic and full of little streets and surprises. Best time to go in my opinion is late spring or Christmas. If you ever decide to visit Prague, let me know and I can give you a few tips for non touristy restaurants, galleries and places. No I'm not paid by a travel agency ( just proud to be Czech living in London)....
