Prague the capital, which is often visited by Poles. It is certainly a famous city with many interesting and very charming monuments. Everyone certainly knows the Old Town Square in Prague and Charles Bridge. However, there are definitely more different attractions in the capital of the Czech Republic, which I will try to prove in this video.

The rapid development of Prague took place in the Middle Ages, hence the layout of the city is quite characteristic of that period. It must be admitted, however, that we will find monuments here that probably represent most of the existing architectural styles (including such architectural rarities as e.g. cubism the House of the Black Madonna). The style that made the city famous around the world is Art Nouveau.
