<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">Prague has been nicknamed the "City of a Thousand Spires." As you glance over its 1,100-year-old skyline you'll be rewarded with countless splendid views of lovely domed churches and soaring old towers that combine to make Prague one of Europe's architectural gems. Everywhere you look, fine examples of Gothic, Baroque, Renaissance, and Art Nouveau styles dot the city, providing a dramatic contrast to the sturdy, ancient Prague Castle. Possessing one of the best-preserved historic city centers in Europe, Prague's narrow streets open up onto spectacular squares, each home to fine old homes and historical buildings just waiting to be explored. Must-sees include the famous Charles Bridge over the Vltava (Moldau) River; the splendid Jewish Quarter with its old synagogues; and the many historic churches. As one of the largest cities in Europe, Prague continues to be an important political, cultural, and commercial center, roles it has played for centuries as the former capital of the Holy Roman Empire. Today, this important UNESCO World Heritage Site serves as a major tourist draw, luring visitors from far and wide for its lively entertainment as well as its rich theatrical and music scenes. Here are 20 spots not to miss when you visit:</div>

<p><br/> <br/> Happy<span> </span><strong>Halloween</strong>! And what better day to explore the dark side of one of<span> </span><strong>Europe</strong>’s most atmospheric big cities. Since its founding in the 9th century, the<span> </span><strong>Czech Republic</strong>’s enchanting and enchanted capital has certainly accumulated its share of ghosts, ghouls, and grim goings on – including plenty that’s mysterious, occult, and blood-soaked. <strong><a href="https://www.tripatini.com/profiles/blogs/prague-czech-republic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Prague</a> </strong>was known in the<span> </span><strong>Middle Ages</strong><span> </span>as a capital of<span> </span><strong>alchemy</strong><span> </span>and<span> </span><strong>astrology</strong>, and of course the legend of the<span> </span><strong>Golem</strong><span> </span>– the red-eyed clay monster created to protect the<span> <strong>Jewish ghetto</strong> </span>– originated here.</p>
<p><br/> So without further ado, here are the seven of the most boo-tiful spots to get your frisson on in mystical, “magical Prague”:</p>

When you read about spectacular<span> </span><strong>autumn foliage</strong><span> </span>and<span> </span><strong>leaf-peeping</strong>, the vast majority of the attention gets focused on places like the northerly regions of the USA. But many Europeans can tell you that large parts of the the Old Continent also burst into<span> </span><strong>fall colours</strong><span> </span>come September and October. The loss of trees’ photosynthesis and chlorophyll as winter approaches is our eyes’ and cameras’ gains, with landscapes dramatically transformed by the turning of their leaves.

<p>The magnificent Czech capital <strong>Prague</strong> the lovely towns and cities of the surrounding region of <strong>Bohemia</strong> tend get most of the attention from travelers and travel writers alike. But in my many visits and time living in the <strong>Czech Republic</strong>, I found that the next-door <strong>Moravia</strong> region has an amazing amount of cool stuff to offer, as well. And one of its top attractions is its own capital, <strong>Brno</strong>, which mixes history and culture with a friendly, untouristy – and even newly hip – vibe, yet at prices quite a bit lower than Prague’s.<br/></p>
