Hi, I am moving to Prague for a year to study. To do so I have had to give up my hoby ofplaying polo and other equestrian events. I will be studying and living in Prague 6 and limited by public transport and that I only speak english. I would very much like to find the oportunity to continue riding and/or working with horses while I am there. Does any one have any sugestions??
kskola@yahoo.com
|
| ANSWER: I am not sure if there is any club where you could play polo. However you can continue to work with the horses- post a message on a specialized web site http://www.equichannel.cz/diskuze/ by clicking on "NOVE" and I am sure somebody will help you. The public transportation is very good, so you can get everywhere.

Hi - I am planning to go to Prague in December. Does anyone know if there are Christmas markets? If so are they good?

Dear Lenka, My name is Michael and I’m writing from Poznañ, Poland. First of all I want to say that your site is honestly great and I mean it! It is easy to navigate, cool colours and it uploads very fast. But… I am planning to visit Prague next week and I managed to find every information I need on your page except one. Probably because it is connected more with the border between our countries than it is to Prague itself. Well, my problem is this: I know very well how to get from Poznañ to the border but unfortunately I have no idea how to get form the border to Prague. My plan was to get through the border in Lubawka (Poland) and get to Žacléø (the Czech Republic) or Mieroszów (Poland) and get to Mezimìsí (the Czech Republic).
|
| ANSWER: Thank you Michael. All the connections can be found at this web site vlak-bus.cz. Answers to the rest of the questions I'm sending via an email.

Thanks for taking the time to help so many people! I will be travelling from Canada to Germany and then to Prague by train with a Europass. I know the pass does not apply to the Czech Republic, so can you let me know how/where I might get a train pass extension into Prague and about how much it will cost. Any info will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Heather
|
| ANSWER: I looked out the info about Europass and this is what they write: "Each basic EUROPASS / EUROPASS YOUTH is valid in Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. For an additional small fee each type of EUROPASS can be extended to Austria + Hungary, Benelux (Belgium + Netherlands + Luxemburg), Greece plus (Greece + ferry to/from Italy), Portugal." No extensions for the Czech Republic. The best thing /if you are going to travel a lot/ would be to buy an EURAILPASS (More info about it at bahn.de or a normal ticket to Prague. If you are a student or under 26 you can get a special discount.

Hi! I'm going to visit Prague again from august 12th until august 25th (my visit in may this year was again fantastic!) This time not alone, but with a group of friends. If anyone is visiting Prague in this period, we don't mind meeting any new people. In fact, we'd love to meet new people. So if you're going, mail me at smokymonster@hotmail.com and maybe we can hang out together.
Greetings from Holland,
Jochem aka SmokyMonster

| ANSWER: Hi SmokyMonster, enjoy your stay. Thanks for your message and do not worry about the Dutch version, I know how time consuming it is. :)

Hi,
I have a bit of a strange request but I am currently writing a diploma work about Smetana's opera Libuse and I am interested in statues, paintings, murals or anything that can be seen in Prague related to Libuse.
If you don't have this information, would you happen to know who I could contact to find out?
Thank you,
Kristin Bostrom
|
| ANSWER: I did some research, but it doesn't seem that there is a lot of info about Smetana on the web. Try to visit http://klub.za.starou.prahu.misto.cz/ or email to kzsp@mail.cz, those guys know Prague very well and they might find someone who could help you. Other two relevant sites that I found are
http://www.hyperlink.cz/hudebninauka/smetana.htm- that is about Smetana in general, it's in Czech. The second one is about Smetana festival, maybe you will find some useful info there
http://www.smetanovalitomysl.cz/poradagb.htm/. Good luck.

I am 27 male single, I live in Sydney, work as a database administrator and love travelling, socialising, partying and nature. If you are interested in corresponding with me my email address is chris_pappy@hotmail.com.

Hi, I along with a stag party will be visiting Prague on the 26/07/01 - 29/07/01.
I want to find a respectable sauna in the centre of Prague where I can relax and get a swedish massage for reasonable price without any extras being offered.
Does anyone know of anywhere?
Also any restaurants that will cater for a group of 12 males?
Thanks Andy C.
andyc@perfectworld.co.uk
|
| ANSWER: Almost every better hotel has its own sauna in the center of Prague. It should not be hard to find a restaurant that will cater for 12 people, try to ask at a restaurant that is a little bit out of the center /Prague3 or 4/, it should be less expensive.

|
| ANSWER: Hi Houby! Sorry, I do apologize for that. I did not get married or anything :), I just traveled a little bit. Now I'm back and working.

I am visiting Prague in late August/early September and believe the Czech football team will be playing Malta while i'm there. Does anyone out there know how to get tickets for these games and the best ways of getting to the Strahov stadium.
|
| ANSWER: You can get the tickets right before the game at the box office on Strahov, it will not be sold out. The easiest way how to get to the stadium is by the public transportation. Take a bus from Karlovo namesti /a bus from Dejvicka also is a good choice/, it stops very close to the stadium. Let's go Czechs!!!
