Vibrant Nightlife Great tips
Ask anybody who visits Prague what stands out the most and the answer
will invariably be the incredible nightlife at a fraction of the cost
of a night out at home. As a major tourist destination, you are
virtually guaranteed a party every night of the week. A buzzing
atmosphere, non-existant dress-code for bars and clubs, ultra-late
opening hours, beautiful women everywhere - what more could you ask for
in a stag weekend?
