I agree, Prague is fantastic, and even photogenic when 
it's overcast and wet.

Although, it must be said, that it is one of the places 
in Europe where you are most likely to get mugged, 
robbed, screwed on currency deals and charged special 
tourist prices in restaurants, bars, hotels and cafes.

I suppose everywhere has its downsides.

Berlin is a good place to go, and much safer - and one 
of the least expensive capital cities in Europe.
