                <description><![CDATA[Just went over last weekend and it was one of the best short breaks I have had in a long time! The walk through the cobbled streets, over Charles Bridge, through the festive markets eating trodl, a hollow barrell-like delicacy made from caramel and almonds, a must to try with some warm grog!<br><br>The best thing for me was going to Cafe Slavia (opposite the National Theatre) and Cafe Louvre  (Narodni 20). Try to get a table by the window and enjoy their great coffees, hot chocolate (the real deal) looking over Charles Bridge and taking in the atmosphere. <br><br>Whether you are travelling alone or with someone, it will definitely relax you and might even give you some inspiration. Cafe Louvre, though without a great view, has this unexplainable charm and has entertained the likes of Franz Kafka and Albert Einstein. A city where the pace is slow but still with a vibrancy that touches your soul.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Apparently this is where the first Slav tribes settled in Prague, and this is their fort. It's a smaller castle or fortress at the southern end of the city, perched at the top of a hill that overlooks the city. The views across Prague are amazing, you can literally perch on the wall and gaze across the more popular Prague Castle. This place is less visited by tourists and is a very calm and relaxing place if you want to escape the city centre for a while.<br><br>There is a lovely church and graveyard where famous Czechs are buried (politicians, artists) - in fact Dvorak's grave is here.<br><br>Go to: <a target="_new" href="http://www.praha-vysehrad.cz">www.praha-vysehrad.cz</a>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[An green oasis of peace and quiet, and not a tanked-up, foul-mouthed stag party in sight. This huge park was once an enclosure (obora in Czech) and is easy to miss, hidden behind stone walls. Once through either of the two main entrances you'll notice the bizarre star-shaped building at the end of the long avenues. A Renaissance structure, it's now open to the public, and contains some fine plasterwork. The park itself is wonderful, and a great place to lounge about or relax with a book, in spring or summer. In winter you can practice cross country skiing there.]]></description>
