Prague emerges as a major European destination for history and wellness

Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, continues to establish itself as a premier European destination, with visitor numbers expected to reach nine million by 2026. The city is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, celebrated for its historic architecture and cultural landmarks.

Key historical sites include the Jewish Quarter, featuring the Old-New Synagogue—the oldest in Europe—and the Old Jewish Cemetery. The Old Town Square remains a central hub, home to the 600-year-old Astronomical Clock and various architectural monuments.

Beyond sightseeing, Prague is emerging as a significant wellness destination. Drawing on the Czech Republic’s long-standing spa traditions, the city offers luxury spas, hydrotherapy, and beer spas. This growing interest in restorative travel is reflected in national trends, with over 980,000 guests utilizing Czech spas last year.
