This guide takes you on strolls from the Charles Bridge to the cafes of Wenceslas Square; explores castles, dungeons and churches; stops off for dumplings, beer and Becherovka; takes in a spot of Kafka and Vaclav Havel; includes day trips to spas, castles and breweries 'Floating in the architectural flotsam of a thousand years, Prague's domes, dungeons, rickety rooftops and spires are about as close as life gets to fairyland. Its central bridge is bent, one of its clock turns backwards, an entire 13th-century town is buried under its alleys, and surveying its domain from the hill above the river is a castle in the air.'
