Lonely Planet ranks Prague among top 10 cities in world

Tour guide publishers Lonely Planet have named Prague among the best cities in the world in the latest edition of their annual Best in Travel survey. The Czech capital is ranked eighth in the top 10 cities, with the list headed by Kenya’s Nairobi.

The authors of the report describe Prague as a pulsating capital cloaked in a Gothic cityscape and say the attractions such as Prague Castle and Charles Bridge “almost feel too beautiful to be real”.
