CZECH REPUBLIC
A walk along the Golden Lane on the
grounds of the Prague Castle in the
capital city of the Czech Republic takes
you back to the 15th century as you
peruse historic homes where scenes of
yesteryear have been recreated to show
the life of artisans who occupied these
quaint dwellings so many centuries ago.
Charming sights such as these abound
in PRAGue, one of Europe's most
mesmerizing cities. There are its winding
streets in the Jewish Quarter-one of
the best-preserved in all of Europe, with
six synagogues, a Jewish Town Hall,
and an enchanting cemetery; the worldrenowned Astronomical Clock at the
Old Town Hall-stay a while to get a good
look at all the striking details that make
up this medieval wonder; and Charles
Bridge, with its Baroque statues standing
watch over its thousands upon thousands
of visitors (go in the evening when it's all
lit up for a completely different vibe). Be
sure to get lost in this fabulously dreamlike
city, known as the City of a Hundred
Spires, and sit down for coffee at one of

the many cafes along Krymska street,
or refresh yourself with some beer at the
new Beer Museum in the center of town.
And if you're lucky enough to be here
during Christmas, don't miss the exquisite
Christmas markets. The hotel list is long,
but the Augustine, A Luxury Collection
Hotel, is centrally located between Prague
Castle and the Charles Bridge and offers
spacious rooms with a contemporary
decor set in a building dating back
to 1284.
Located no more than two hours
from Prague, and definitely worth the
trip is Cesky Krumlov, with its massive
castle-dating back to 1240 and now a
museum-looming over the Vltava River
and this tiny medieval town. Stroll into
this UNESCO gem and you'll immediately
feel as if you've walked onto the pages of
a long-forgotten fairytale, with its winding
cobblestone streets, picturesque buildings
and spine-chilling tales of bygone times
(ask a guide to tell you the love story
associated with the castle-you'll
relish it). ◆
