THE CITY

Photo: Guillaume Cattiaux

After the ’Velvet Revolution’ in 1989, Prague has been an international metropolis with all the usual trappings—butit has also managed successfully to retain its unspoiledlocal character. The Czech capital is small and compact,with hospody (beerhouses) that oer the world’s bestbeers stationed on every street corner. The mostimportant areas are the central districts of the city: StaréMěsto (Old Town), Josefov, Nové Město (New Town), andMalá Strana (Lesser Town). These are best explored onfoot. In recent years, the district of Vinohrady (Vineyards)has established itself as the district favoured by Pražani(the Prague inhabitants), and the restaurants and cafés lieclosely packed.

When you visit Prague, it is worth remembering that not only does the city boast an impressive history, whichstretches back many hundreds of years, but it has alsofostered exciting architects, artists, and designers of the20th century. Prague was once the centre of CentralEuropean modernism, a fact which today, after a longperiod of dictatorship, has almost faded into oblivion.During recent years, modernist Czech architecture andinterior design have experienced a recovery, and there isnearly always a good exhibition to see.
