Prague

Prague is a hot European destination which has become extremely popular with budget travellers over the past ten years. It's quaint medieval streets and a youthful style and cultural vibrance make it more enjoyable than many other east European cities, and not only does Prague have plenty to see, but the city is also host to some great bars where you can enjoy the legendary Czech beer.
