Experience the beautiful city of Prague with IFC. Prague is the capital city of the Czech Republic, situated on the Vltava river. It has been the political, cultural and economic centre of the Czech Republic state for over 1000 years. Prague is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in Europe especially since its historic centre has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. It is not without good reason that Prague has been known as the "city of a hundred spires" and "the golden city" being famed for its magnificent range of outstanding architecture from Gothic, Baroque and Romanesque to the modern style Belle-Époque/Art Nouveau and Cubism.
Our holidays offer you the chance to see stunning Prague as well as enjoying opera and ballet performances in the wonderful venues. The city will delight you at every turn, with palaces, cathedrals, and churches located throughout. See the many splendid bridges arching across the river, none more famous than the exquisite 15th century Charles Bridge, plus historic churches and merchants’ houses adorning the beautiful old town. Not forgetting the fascinating “astronomical clock” on the city’s unpronounceable square, Staromesti Namesti. The city boasts three wonderful Opera Houses: the ornate and stately National Theatre which places emphasis on works by native Czech composers, the stunning Prague State Theatre, and the historic Estates Theatre where the premiere of Mozart’s Don Giovanni took place. Classical music performances are held in the Rudolfinim and the Municipal House.
