6Prague, Czech Republic

Prague is one of Europe’s most beautiful cities, but the influx of tourists has altered its character significantly.

The city’s medieval Old Town is packed with visitors year-round, making it difficult to fully appreciate the historic architecture and charm. Local businesses have been replaced by souvenir shops and tourist-centric attractions, while the cost of living has risen for residents.
Prague’s city officials have implemented regulations to curb disruptive behavior, like banning pub crawls and “beer bikes,” and are working to promote cultural tourism that attracts more respectful visitors.
