A Hipster’s Guide to Prague

24 January, 2018

In anyone’s book, the overt beauty of Prague cannot be disputed. Centuries of history decorate the ancient streets in the maze of cobbled lanes, magnificent architecture and inimitable character of neighbourhoods like Vinohrady and Bubeneč. But for those who enjoy their history with a bit of mystery and their culture with an urban edge, there’s even more to get excited about. Home of the original bohemian literary giant Franz Kafka, Prague has always had the tick of approval from the arty, cutting edge crowd. A subtle creative undertow defines a host of fashionably highbrow districts tucked in and around the

Country Profile: Czech Republic

5 September, 2016

Previously constrained by communist rule, today the cultural and physical landscape of Czech Republic presents an entirely different face. A country of lush agriculture punctuated by chateaux, palaces and castles, the extent of its rural beauty is often underestimated. From the lush vineyards of Moravia to the medieval architecture of Český Krumlov and České Budějovice – there’s plenty to explore. Prague is the elegant prize amongst the country’s cultural and architectural wealth. At its heart, the magnificently preserved Baroque, Renaissance and Gothic buildings of the Old Town and the romantic vision of the Charles Bridge spanning the Vltava River are

Celebrate The Velvet Revolution In Prague

23 November, 2015

The infamous 1989 Velvet Revolution, in Prague, celebrated its 26th anniversary this year and many people travelled to the city join in the events.

In 1990 a democratic free election was held, in which a president was elected.
