Capital of Bohemia and one of the cultural centers of Europe, Prague is a city full of history and beauty.
When I was a boy, Prague was a place I could only read about. Firmly situated behind the Iron Curtain and Soviet rule, it seemed I would never be allowed to travel to this fabled city. From its castles to its palaces, all were off limits to me as a Westerner. But as the Soviet Union disintegrated with the Czech Republic to take root, Prague became available as a destination.
