Pronounced as “Praaha”, it is the capital of Poland. And the beginnings of the World War I and II emanated from here, which is often overlooked. Poland was the first nation, and Prague the first city to be overrun by Germany, which became the beginning of World II, as the Allies just stood by and watched.
Its history is inter-twined with that of Germany and the then USSR. These two countries used this as their arms pact, but when Hitler started winning, violating their pact, USSR laid siege to Poland. And till the dismantling, Poland was a USSR satellite.
It is full of memoirs of that heritage, and of the Jews, who once were one of the many vibrant communities of Poland. Poland is one country that is central to Germany in the North, and what was the USSR in the South, and most battles were fought here for this land.
Prague flights are quite a few, but not as much as other cities. But it is well connected with the other gateways to Europe. You can get Prague flights from Germany, France, Italy, UK, USA and other countries too. |
