отдых rest

Hello tourist  .
To begin with, I went to the Czech Republic with my parents in August (late) 2007. This was our second trip. We have long wanted to go to Europe and we were advised to start from the Czech Republic. In general, I advise anyone who travels to Europe for the first time to start from the Czech Republic, because. reasonable price and it's just a fairy tale.
Hotel. We chose the 3* PAV hotel. The hotel is located almost in the center of the city, not far from the Dancing House and from the meeting point for tourists going on excursions. I must say right away that the hotel is 3 * or even more. Completely new renovation, spacious rooms, luxurious bathroom, plasma TV. Everything is very modern and tidy. So the price: the tour cost us about $ 750 per person and with a flight from Kyiv for 8 days. For those who were not embarrassed by the price, I tell further...

The hotel operates on a breakfast basis. It includes: several types of yoghurts, fresh fruits, a huge selection of teas, coffee, milk, scrambled eggs, sausages, salads....in general, malnutrition does not threaten. However, do not confuse Europe with Egypt or Turkey. In Europe, everything is more modest, I mean food.
The disadvantage of the hotel (although it may be a huge plus for someone) is that it is located next to the famous Czech brewery, well, you probably got the hint . The downside is not that there are a lot of drunk people around, but that at about 19:00 probably half of Prague gathers there and a real feast begins with songs and dances, and so on all night and every day. Although if you close the window more tightly, you can sleep. This minus is so small compared to the impressions that the Czech Republic fills with that it is not necessary to pay special attention to it.
Prague. This is a beautiful city - an open-air theater. All the buildings are in molding, in gold, in painting . . in general, a paradise for connoisseurs of art. Be sure to take a city tour. On it you will be taken to the most famous places and you will begin to at least slightly navigate the city (after all, it is huge). Also in Prague, I advise you to visit the Krzhizhikovy light and music fountains - this is an unforgettable performance, as well as the famous Prague Zoo, where there are no cages and aviaries. There are all kinds of animals in the zoo, there is a cafe, animals can be stroked, photographed. The zoo has two levels and a cable car leads to the second level.
By the way, advice, I am a student and from my own experience I can say - be sure to take a student card and present it at all state institutions, a discount of about 30% or even more.
You can walk around Prague for hours, it is especially beautiful at night and completely safe, because this is Europe!

We visited a huge number of excursions and visited almost all major Czech cities. Karlovy Vary deserves special attention. It's a completely different story. Do not hesitate and take an excursion to Karlovy Vary. This is a small resort town among the mountains, in the center of which the Tepla River flows. Vary has a huge number of geysers and healing springs. There is also a treatment pool. In your free time, visit shops, buy souvenirs and famous Karlovy Vary waffles. You can talk about Karlovy Vary for hours, it's just a miracle, we were delighted and plan to go there next year.
Well, you are probably already tired of my story. If you suddenly have questions about this fabulous country, write to me at ICQ 406408797 and I will definitely help. By the way, I was also in Turkey and Egypt, going to the UAE. You can also ask questions about these countries.
PS: as I said, we went in August, but the temperature at night dropped to 9 degrees, and during the day it rose to 27. In Karlovy Vary it was about 10 degrees and cloudy, drizzling. However, after the sun came out, it became even hotter.
Prices in Prague are quite reasonable, do not compare with France or Italy, they are much higher there.
