Prague, Czech Republic. Review, photos and video tour of this magical European city

…who have added Prague as a must-see in their European schedule along with Paris. It is clear that Prague is a very popular destination, the 6th most visited city in Europe I read somewhere (if that means anything) but as the heart of the old part of the city is quite compact and small, it does feel very busy as tourists all work (and walk) a fairly small route and area – as all the must-see attractions and in that area. Prague = Ancient, undistur…
