Description
Whether travelers are planning their city break in advance or want instant guidance exploring, Cadogan City Guides are the ideal companions. They provide a truly accessible way into the heart of a city, with a unique introductory full-color section packed with ideas for days out and itineraries and extensive, cross-referenced maps with all listings clearly marked (the fullest listings of any city guide available). They also include a wealth of engaging cultural and historical knowledge, along with anecdotes and colorful stories written in the enthusiastic, informed, personal way for which Cadogan is renowned.One of the great success stories of ex-Eastern bloc tourism, Prague is now among Europe's leading city break destinations. Even the briefest glance round the city will show why; its straggling gothic streets take visitors past fairy-tale castles, palaces, and churches, over ornate bridges, and up flights of narrow steps to views over rooftops, domes, and spires. The guide gives the lowdown on the sites that are attracting American tourists in their thousands: massive, absorbing Hradcany Castle, the old Jewish ghetto, Charles Bridge at the heart of the city, and Wenceslas Square, where four decades of Communism died in 1989. The most comprehensive listings available -- all extremely well-mapped -- cover the exciting new places to stay, bars, clubs, and restaurants that are springing up all over the city.
