Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, attracts tourists from all over the world with its unique blend of historical charm and modern culture. This city has become a sort of living museum, where every stone reminds visitors of the great epochs of the past.

For gastronomy enthusiasts, Prague offers a true paradise in the form of Czech restaurants and pubs that provide unique culinary experiences, along with the renowned Czech beer. This beverage has propelled Prague to the top spot globally in terms of beer consumption per year, as reported by LadBible.

According to statistics, the Czech Republic boasts the highest alcohol consumption per capita of any country in the world - 14.45 liters of pure alcohol per year.

On average, a consumer drinks about 481 beers annually, possibly aided by the affordable prices - the cost of a pint of ale starts at 60 pence and can go up to 2.80 pounds.

This is why it's incredibly challenging to resist indulging in this city and not sampling this frothy beverage.

What's interesting about Prague besides beer

Prague continues to attract tourists fascinated by its rich history and enchanting charm. It's famous not only for its stunning architectural masterpieces, such as the majestic Charles Bridge and the country's oldest 600-year-old chimes on Old Town Square, but also for boasting the largest castle complex in the world, making it a truly unique destination.

Take a stroll through the ancient streets and admire the magnificent hillside views from Letná Park, immerse yourself in the spirit of the past by visiting the old alchemical laboratory Speculum Alchemiae, and explore the quaint Dancing House located on the edge of the Old Town.
