While Prague remains the undisputable crown jewel of Czech cities, those who venture beyond its magnetic Medieval old town will luxuriate in ailment-curing thermal springs of West Bohemian Karlovy Vary, gape at the creepy Bone Church in Kutná Hora, delight in supreme Czech beer in Pilsen (or nearly any other town, for that matter: Pilsner Urquell certainly deserves its regalia, but multiple microbreweries have risen to rival the celebrity brand), and discover the laid-back region of Moravia with its animated, youthful capital of Brno.
”Moder Prag har kløer”, skrev Franz Kafka for snart hundrede år siden. Og det er lige så sandt i dag. Den, der én gang har spadseret på brostensgaderne i de gotiske alleer, og set månen hænge bag tinderne og tårnene i Europas smukkeste hovedstad, kommer tilbage igen.
