With a population of over 1.2 million, Prague is the Czech Republic’s biggest city and one of Europe’s most beautiful – and most visited – cities. As a result, inhabitants are outnumbered five to one by the six million tourists that make the trip to the Czech capital every year. Major tourist sites include the Prague Astronomical Clock, Prague Castle, which according to the Guinness Book of World Records is the largest castle in the world, Wenceslas Square and the romantic Charles Bridge. One less seen but equally important facet of Prague is the city’s pneumatic postal network. The world's last preserved municipal pneumatic post system, it is an underground labyrinth of metal tubes, around 55 kilometres in length, that distributes post across the wider centre of the city.

A Prague flower fact
On May Day, Czech lovers of all ages make a pilgrimage to the statue of Karel Hynek Mácha on Petřín Hill, where they deposit bunches of flowers and have a snog. Mácha was a 19th-century Romantic poet most remembered for the epic poem Máj ('May'), which, despite being a rather sad tale of unrequited love, doesn’t spoil the fun.
