    Prague is the capital and largest city of our republic. It lies in the middle of Bohemia. It has been the capital city of the country since 1918. The population in Prague is 1 242 002 and the area is 496 km2.  Nicknames for Prague have included "the mother of cities""city of a hundred spires", or Stověžatá Praha in Czech and "the golden city" or Zlaté město in Czech. Situated on the River Vltava in central Bohemia, Prague has been the political, cultural, and economic centre of the Czech state for more than 1100 years. Today, the city is home to more than 1.2 million people, while its metropolitan area is estimated to have a population of over 1.9 million. Prague is divided into 57 urban neighbourhoods. The public transport infrastructure consists of an integrated transport system of Prague Metro (its length is 59 km with 57 stations in total), Prague Tram System (including the "nostalgic tram" no. 91), buses, the Petřín funicular to Petřín Hill. The recent situation on the streets is very unpleasant: the main traffic stream of cars leads through the centre of the city. The longest city Tunnel in Europe with a proposed length of 5.5 km and with 5 interchanges with the surface is now being built to relieve congestion in the north-western part of Prague. The tunnel is called Tunel Blanka and it is part of the Municipal Ring Road. Prague is served by Ruzyně International Airport, the biggest airport in the Czech Republic and one of the busiest in Central and Eastern Europe. In Prague, there are lots of sights.  
Prague castle:
This is seat of the president. Here is st. Vitus Cathedral.
Wenceslas square: here are National Museum, st. Wenceslas statue and a lot of shops and fast foods.
National Theatre: has golden roof and was destroyed by fire.
Charles Bridge: is the most famous of the 15 Prague bridges. According to a legend, the bridge is in order for so long because eggs were added into the mortar during its construction.

Vyšehrad: Here is cemetery for famous people (f. E. : poets, politicians, well-know Czechs, … Antonín Dvořák, Bedřich Smetana)
Petřín Tower- it is called “little Eiffel”
Shopping:
In Prague are lots of shops or shopping centers. For Example: Letňany, Metropole Zličín, SC Palladium, Palace Flora, etc.
I like Prague, because I have there relatives and I like big cities with many activities (theatres, cinemas, shopping centers. Always, when you are bored, you have a place where you can go. And for me, it is good to live in a big city, because you know much people and they don´t know you. You can make what you want.
