Like a medieval fantasy preserved for all time, the Czech Republic impeccably preserves its storied heritage while thriving amidst the modern world. With towering castles and dramatic arched bridges as a backdrop, this spectacular country offers an astonishing array of culture, art and nightlife.
The heart of the country lies in magnificent Prague, a city that stands much as it has for countless centuries. The winding cobblestone passageways, stone arches and historic buildings create a vivid tableau of life in the middle ages.
Prague also embraces the present day with a vibrancy that dazzles. In the evening you’ll delight in the most lively nightlife in Central Europe – where the beat of the clubs plays alongside the soulful melodies of treasured Czech composers such a Dvorak.
Just as the Czech Republic has emerged from behind the Iron Curtain to join the European Union, a tolerance towards gays is also emerging. Its recent laws have given registered gay couples equal rights for inheritances and other partnership privileges. As a result, a gay Czech culture has grown to the point that an annual gay cultural and film festival called Mezipatra is held in a couple of cities.
Prague is a world class, cosmopolitan city with a gay life that rivals many western European cities. There, you are sure to find a good number of LGBT bars, cafes and businesses to make you feel welcome. |
