Prague.
Hello. Me and some friends I barely know are planning to visit Prague by the end of this month. What are the places worth visiting over there? How does the Czech police react to wild camping, as we might want to visit the beatiful countryside of Czech republic? What else to know before going over there?

the main sights are all very close together so you wont miss em... and stuffed full of tourists. its like disney land. just grab a tourist map and you are good to go. if you still have time and money i recommend boarding the train to Budapest
Question is what do you want to see, but usually tourists want to visit Prague Castle, Charles bridge, The Old Town square with Astronomical clock and many others.

But watch out. There are many transport issues in Prague. Lot of tram lines and some underground stations are repairing during summer holydays.

But the most important thing, visit some pub and have a czech beer
All the castles, squares and bridges are of course nice, but we'd like to find some places to have fun. Czech beer is of course number one in priority list, what bars could you offer to visit?

Btw, I've heard, that beer in a bar cost less than 1 euro, is that true?

If that's true, I'm moving there right now...
If you are looking for clubs I can offer a few ones.

These clubs are probably the most popular in Prague (I don't know how is it with entrance fee). There are many more clubs, but I don't know them You can find a pub in every 2nd street. I never found a pub where I wasn't satisfied

And yes, beer cost here +/- 1€ (25 czech crowns), but this price is mainly in pubs, clubs are more expensive.

Food:
Look out for the little fat soldier on restaurant signs, it means that the restaurant is a tourist trap that serves bad expensive traditional food. Instead visit the many italian restaurants that have excellent quality for similar prices or the places where the locals eat that have OK food for very good price.

Cheap food trick: draw a ring around every tourist attraction, move to a position furthest from any rings, there you will probably find non-tourist-infested restaurants, be prepared to order using charades unless you speak Czech.

Beer:
* I visited a beer tasting in an old brothel -> socialist worker canteen -> nightclub -> punk bar (the place were about to be demolished and the punks were helping ) I guess they still hold the beer tastings, in some to me unknown location. Highly recommended, quite cheap, very informative.
* Staropramen brewery tour, quite central, quite useless if you are interested in the art of brewing beer, possibly interesting if oyu like stainless steel and panels with buttons.
* Monastery in the hills above prague. Interesting ales.
* Do try the unknown local brands, they are usually better than the famous brands (better==interesting character)
* Do try to locate a local "three pints is a lunch" lunch place, called Pivnice or Hospoda. I failed to locate such a place, maybe I did not drift far enough from the tourist attractions.

Not only that one, but on green line is something strange all the time

And Cross club is the worst club in central Europe (at lesat for me)
