Prague Travel Guide
Czech Republic
Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic and has a population of 1,323,339. It is an inland city in Central Europe, so its appeal is urban and cultural rather than coastal.
Travellers arriving by air can use Václav Havel Airport Prague (PRG) or Vodochody Airport (VOD). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Prague, so add a beach destination elsewhere if swimming by the sea is a priority.
