Prague and Venice
We will be visiting Prague and Venice for the first time this summer. Notwithstanding the obvious differences, we note a number of remarkable similarities between the cities. Both are cities with rich histories, their physical structures were untouched by World War II, they are cities for walking and getting lost down charming, winding steets and alleys, they both have famous Astronomical or Astrological clocks in thier main town square/ piazza, both have a major sight (Charles Bridge, Piazza St. Marks) which is said to be overrun by tourists, but the advice is to try to visit early or late. Any others similarities worthy of comment?

I understand what you're saying, but they aren't really that similar at all. To start, Prague has a lot of cars. Obviously, Venice has none. Prague is on a river, Venice is on the ocean (well, actually a lagoon).<BR><BR>Prague is wonderful (great beer!), but, in my opinion, Venice has a magic unlike any other city in the world. It's like visiting another planet. You'll no doubt enjoy both cities.<BR><BR>I have plenty of photos of both cities. If you'd like to see them, email me and I'll send you the link.
