Prague , General info:
9/10
Prague (Praha) is the capital of the Czech Republic since 1993, from 1918 to 1992 of Czechoslovakia. 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...

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.

Located on the southern tip of New Zealand's North Island. Wellington is a town like no other in New Zealand. Its renowned for being very friendly, very liberal and full of incredibly interesting people.
Cuba Street in the middle of Wellington City Centre is usually thriving with buskers, jugglers and people wearing no shoes and piercings all of the place.

Blanket Man! The City's superstar homeless guy - wearing only a blanket - even in winter - he is a local hero. Often found on Cuba Street smoking pot - he is always listening to his ipod, greets passers by with a little wink and has his own religion and political party!

Very safe city. Often surprised to see young women walking alone at 2am down the high street.
Some homeless people in the centre of town but they are mostly harmless and often quite friendly.
