Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic, the historical center of Europe. Main state language is Czech, but locals, especially young people, are fluent in English. Czechs, whose age has “stepped over” the mark of 45-50 years, can understand and express themselves in Russian.

Tourist Prague

Interesting facts about Prague that you should definitely take note of:
Such a choice of beer, the freshness and variety of varieties of which literally go off scale, is not found in any other country, let alone a city.
The tram network is well developed - if you want to explore the city, see all its beauties, but not feel tired, then it's time to change to trams. By the way, they Prague run strictly on schedule.
IN Prague there is a night tram - it costs, however, a little more than usual, but rides around the city all night.
Almost every second restaurant in the city has a menu in Russian, which will greatly facilitate the life of tourists who do not know Czech or English.
Many cafes and bars offer a menu with pictures of dishes for the convenience of customers. Even without knowing the language and not understanding the name of the dish, you can easily see its real image, volume and cost.
It is worth turning deep into any Czech street, a little far from the city center, and the amount of a check in a restaurant or cafe will be simply ridiculous compared to prices in the central historical part of the city. As a no less pleasant bonus, there will be huge portions.
Walk around in the evening Prague- pure pleasure. City services took care of organizing the most competent illumination of not only spiritual objects, but also architectural sights.
If you climb to the very top of St. Vitus Cathedral, you can see Prague almost from a bird's eye view. An incredibly beautiful sight.
The wonderful sea lion can only be seen at the Prague Zoo. The animal willingly makes contact with people, demonstrating touching tricks and whole performances at lunchtime.
locals- Very friendly and hospitable people. A lost tourist can approach the Czech without a twinge of conscience and ask for directions to the hotel, in turn, the Czech will "get out of his skin" in order to explain the way to the hotel and how best to get to it using the language method, manipulations or an Internet map on the phone.
Many older Czechs living in Prague have a good knowledge of the Russian language and speak it.
IN Prague just an incredible concentration of attractions. The whole city is one big monument of architecture. And it makes no difference whether you are in the central historic street, near the Charles Bridge or three metro stops from the center. The city is truly beautiful, acts as a magnet for tourists, where each building attracts the eye and carries its own history.
IN Prague it is difficult to single out the best restaurant, cafe or bar. Each catering establishment means the highest level of service, a variety of dishes, a wine and beer list, an affordable price tag for tourists even in the city center. The only thing to do is to always check the bill at the establishment, a large flow of visitors often confuses the presence or absence of dishes served in the check. But administrators never sort things out, do not quarrel with visitors, and always admit their mistake.

Ten things you should definitely do while in Prague:
- standing near the Astronomical clock to find out the exact time;
- guess the most cherished desire on the Charles Bridge;
- taste dumplings (floury sweet, like our pretzels), drink mulled wine, eat the famous pork leg;
- it is hardly worth mentioning Czech beer, which tastes just fabulous;
- try the national drink of the Czech Republic - Becherovka;
- visit shops specializing in the sale of Czech Pomegranate;
- get lost in the city and calmly explore it without haste and fuss - it is beautiful not even in the center, but far beyond its borders;
- ride a tram - interesting and informative in terms of exploring city streets and houses painted in bright colors;
- feed the swans at the foot of the Charles Bridge - they are tame, they ask for bread, which causes a storm of emotions and tenderness;
- ride on river boat along the Vltava, during the walk, a gorgeous view of the city streets opens up, architectural structures and houses located on both banks of the river.

Currency exchange in Prague
IN Prague low crime rate, but pickpocketing is common. Therefore, it is advisable not to take large sums of money with you on excursions and just for walks. The ideal option is a payment plastic card, with which payment can be made in almost 99% of stores and catering facilities.
It is desirable to carry out currency exchange at money exchange points or banks. BUT! Be careful! Many banks charge exorbitant fees for currency exchange. Therefore, it is advisable, before making an exchange, to clarify the amount of the commission and find out whether it exists or not.
In no case do not change money from a random person who approached you on the street and offers this service. His goal is not to exchange, but simply to deceive.
Many tourists change money in the Old Town on Panska Street with people of Arab or Turkish nationality. Risky, but without commissions and at a favorable rate.

Czech garnet jewelry

In general, garnet is a symbol of the Czech Republic, the hardest gemstone. Mining is carried out in several regions of the country, but most often processing is carried out at the Turnov factory. The products of this manufacturer are stamped with the letter "G" (G1 and G2). To distinguish a real Czech pomegranate from a fake one, you should know a few features:

- a real Czech pomegranate has a rich blood-red color.
- on average, the size of the stone does not exceed five millimeters, a maximum of seven. Anything more is a high probability of a fake. It is clear that garnets are more than seven millimeters, but jewelry with such stones will also cost a lot of money.
- in jewelry stores, when buying garnet jewelry, they can easily issue a certificate of authenticity - a mandatory component of the purchase.
- in a pomegranate mined and processed in the Czech Republic - 56 faces, but a fake has only 12 faces. Of course, it will not work to count the edges, but it is hardly possible not to distinguish 56 from 12.
- buy products from pomegranate should be exclusively in specialized outlets. IN Prague There are two such stores: one is located at Panska 1, the other at Dlouha 28. These stores belong to the Turnov chain and sell only genuine products.

Czech crystal
See shops selling Czech crystal in Prague- easy, especially in the evening, when over a few tens of meters you can see the play of light, the brilliance and splendor of the shopping facility. Crystal products look very beautiful, taking into account the fact that sellers take a responsible approach to window dressing and lighting in the sales area, when the head starts to feel dizzy from the brilliance and play of crystal pendants. Prices are quite high for the average tourist, but lower than in Moscow for similar products.
In general, the Czech Republic is famous for its products made of crystal, porcelain and ceramics, most of which are handmade.

Bijouterie and jewelry
The jewelry brand of the Czech Republic is the JABLONEX brand. It is difficult to convey in a nutshell the charm and sophistication of jewelry made of rhinestones, beads, imitation pearls. If desired, the same rhinestones or beads can be bought by weight.
