Prague is the capital of Czech Republic and has about 1 200 000 inhabitants. According to many surveys, it is one of the most popular tourist places to visit. However, from the practical point of view, it is much cheaper to live in compared to other metropoles.
As the only capital among the cities hosting universities of LCT consortium, Prague offers a wide variety of cultural and entertainment opportunities (museums, galleries, concerts, theaters, clubs, sport events, pubs, ...). There are many shops for those with special (e.g. religious) requirements for their meals.
Prague is a popular tourist destination, so it is always quite easy to find somebody in your vicinity who speaks English. We will of course provide you with a Czech language course, but even without that, it is sustainable to speak English here.
