After living in New Prague for about 25 years we felt it was appropriate to visit Prague and find out what inspired our Minnesota community. The City of Prague has a population of about 1 million people.

Historical areas of metro Prague possess amazing beauty and architecture. City squares are graced with cathedrals, museums and hotels. We attended an old style Latin Sunday Mass where Monsignor faced the altar instead of congregation. All of this service was chanted and very prayerful.
Connecting Old Town and Castle areas of the city is the landmark St. Charles Bridge. It's beautiful to look at the river from and people watch as tourists stroll by.
Pilsner Urquill is a very popular beverage, made in Plzen about an hour away. It's clear, golden and has a strong flavor of hops. Other than beer, Czech pastries and dumplings weren't bad either.
Journeying home we visited Karlovy Vary, a community well known for its beautiful resorts, glassware and china. Countryside, as we continued was sprinkled with villages, large fields and trees in full color.
