| Location: |
PRAGUE
Prague, widely regarded as one of Europe’s most beautiful city has, in the last 15 years,
emerged as one of Europe’s most dynamic business centers as well as major tourist
destination. Many multinational firms and banks have located in Prague, and the Czech
Republic’s entry into the European Union has sparked a major overhaul of economic policies
and the emergence of new institutions to support the country’s growing globalization. The
city is rich in historical sites and cultural activities and provides easy access to other major
cities such as Vienna, Budapest, Munich, Leipzig, and Berlin. As a major tourist destination,
it offers a broad range of entertainment and recreational facilities at prices much lower than
found in Western Europe.
