This city is one of the most beautifull ones in the world - a certain must see place for people visiting middle Europe. The centre is listed among UNESCO world cultural heritage sites. Prague is also great for clubing and pubing. Two best open pubs well worth the climb are in Letenske Sady and Riegrovy Sady - great atmosphere, great beer, great view. Best time to pay a visit is from early sprint to late fall.

If you're comming from North America, Western Europe or Australia, you'll find cheaper everything - except for the most turistic places. Most striking are low prices of public transport (especialy if you take in accont its high quality), beer (no wonder Czechs have the highest consumption of beer per capita in the world:-), and cultural events (concerts, National Theatre, ZOO, etc. and again the quality of it is high!)

Bring your girl for rowing a boat on Vltava river - she wont say no after this romantic experience :-) If you're in Prague for couple days, make sure, that you se bits around Prague and Cesky Krumlov - another UNESCO site with medieval style restaurants along the river...

Prague , Food:
6/10

Ztraty a Nalezy on Vinohradska street just 5mins walk up from Wienceslaw Square (Vaclavske Namesti). But not just here, in general Czech cuisine is meat based - If you're a vegetarian, then you're ... untucky. (there are some nice places too, but in general: poor you)

Prague , Safety:
9/10

If you come from the USA, than you're not going to believe it - you can be an attractive fragile female and you can walk the streets of Prague on your own at midnight not risking anything more than just getting lost.

San Salvador, El Salvador

You are looking at San Salvador in El Salvador. The city has a population of 2100000 residents. It is located on -89.00 degrees longitude, and 7,713.70 latitude.

San Salvador , General info:
7/10

San Salvador is the capital city of the nation of El Salvador. The valley where it is located was earlier known as "El Valle de las Hamacas" because of its high seismic activity. San Salvador is the second largest city in Central America.

San Salvador is a powerhouse - the cultural and cosmopolitan heart of the country.it abounds with museums, cultural centers, bars and cafes. Six-lane avenues and glittery malls keep the city buzzing. What San Salvador lacks in colonial grandeur, it makes up for in class and personality. Wander through the Teatro Nacional, with its red velvet opulence and sensuous mural, or around one of the city's five markets; the interesting Mercado Ex-Cuartel has handicrafts, hand-woven textiles and ceramics.

San Salvador , Cheap stuff:
8/10

San Salvador is pretty cheap city, everything is affordable. Hotels and restaurants are cheap.

San Salvador , Different stuff:
10/10

Pollution remains one of the city's biggest problems. Located in a valley, San Salvador is a perfect pollution trap. Fueling this, the city struggles with an increasing traffic problem. New highways and arterial roads offer some relief. According to a study by the United Nations, El Salvador was ranked as the second worst polluter of carbon dioxide emissions in Central America.

The national fiesta patronal (patron saint festival) is celebrated during the first week of August. Schools, government offices and most businesses close (as they do for all public holidays), and everyone goes on vacation. Religious processions, street fairs and colorful parades are held throughout the country, the celebration in San Salvador is the largest and the best.

San Salvador , Food:
10/10

The restaurant scene in San Salvador is influenced by many different cultures. food options include Italian, Korean, Japanese, French, Chilean, American, Peruvian, Mexican, Spanish, Middle Eastern, German, Chinese, Argentinian and others. Local food options include Tipicos Margot where one can purchase the famous Salvadoran Pupusas. Perhaps the biggest indictment against the quality of the San Salvador restaurant scene however is the sheer number of chain restaurants.

San Salvador , Hotels:
8/10

There are four main zones for accommodations: the city center (cheap, but a bit sketchy at night), Parque Cuscatlán (reasonably priced and much safer), Boulevard de los Héroes (the only place for hostels) and the area around Colonía Escalón and Zona Rosa (top-end, high-rise).

San Salvador , Safety:
9/10

San Salvador has had a history of violence. San Salvador was considered the most dangerous city in the world in 1992. Since the end of the civil war in 1992 San Salvador has not seen a reduction in crime rates. Today San Salvador, and El Salvador in general, experience some of the highest homicide rates in the world, it is also considered an epicenter of the gang crisis. Don't walk on streets that look abandoned and dark. Use only licensed taxis or rent a car. Walk in tourist areas.
