Prague is a weird and wonderful city, populated with curiosities. Despite the gentrification and global hype it received after 1989's end of Communism (dubbed, "the Left Bank of the '90s"), its quirky spirit survives. Saunter along cobblestones between the jazz bars, gardens and palaces of Mala Strana ("Little Town"), where "poets, drunks and mystics" live alongside foreign diplomats. Visit Wenceslas Square, home of revolution, where nowadays you will find protesters under the banner Dik a Odejdete ("Thank you, now get out"). Or risk it, and head for Zizkov's faded pubs, "bordellos" and strip clubs.
Since the first edition of Time Out Guide Prague in 1995, the city has witnessed the fastest changes of any European capital (former Yugoslavia aside). Now on their fourth edition, Time Out have done impressive job tracking the city's cultural shifts, making it the best guide to the city for fans of art, drinking, eating, dancing and hanging out in cafés. It is also invaluable for anyone considering joining the massive ex-pat community now residing there.
Numerous intriguing magazine-style features supplement the astute accommodation, nightlife and culture guides. Where other guides recommend Prague Castle, beer and Kafka, Time Out also enthusiastically champions more esoteric causes like the burgeoning Romany and "ethnic" music scene; 2000's drum-and-bass heroes Ohm Square; surrealist art movie directors; 170 percent proof absinthe and contemporary underground publishers like Twisted Spoon Press. For "Bohemians" everywhere. --Sarah Champion
